Scratches on your TV screen can be frustrating, but there are several household items you can use to minimize or remove them. Here are three effective methods:
Method 1: Toothpaste or Petroleum Jelly
Apply a small amount of non-gel toothpaste or petroleum jelly to a microfiber cloth. Gently rub the affected area in a circular motion for about a minute. Wipe away any excess with a clean cloth.
Method 2: Isopropyl Alcohol and Water
Mix equal parts isopropyl alcohol (91% or higher) and water in a spray bottle. Lightly mist the scratched area and wipe with a microfiber cloth. Repeat as needed.
Method 3: 3M Rubbing Compound
Apply a small amount of 3M Rubbing Compound to a microfiber cloth and gently rub the scratched area. Let it sit for a few minutes, then wipe away with a clean cloth. For best results, follow up with a lacquer or polish like Armor All Ultra Shine.
Remember to always test any solution on a small, inconspicuous area first, and avoid pressing too hard to prevent further damage. With a little elbow grease and the right household items, you can help minimize the appearance of scratches on your TV screen.
