Toothpaste - The Cheapest and Most Effective Way to Clean Car Scratches |
The idea of using toothpaste is because it made of the same chemical that people use to make a baking soda and it is very effective to clean metal rust. Why toothpaste? because it is in the form of gel just like car wax which is easy to apply to the car paint - if the material is too liquid it will slip away and not so effective.
Squeeze the toothpaste and apply to the scratches area - however, you want it doesn't matter.
Use a soft cloth or microfiber cloth and wet into the water - then squeeze the water to avoid excessive water that washes away the toothpaste. But instead, just make it damp and then scrub the scratches away.
1. Tiny and shallow scratches are pretty easy to clean
2. Bigger scratches - apply more hand pressure when scrubbing and take sometimes to clean
3. Bad rusted scratch - will take more pressure and require more time.
I guess it's done - you may never know how useful your toothpaste is until you try and it saves you money big time rather than buying all those expensive car wax like Meguiar's, Soft99, Fix it pro, etc.
