    For a quick and cheap fix for light scratches- buy a bag of walnuts and rub them into the scratches. This helps fill the scratch, and the natural oil from the walnuts also helps. It's not perfect, but it will improve the scratched areas significantly.

    @DebKiwi 2 года назад +1

    Well, I’m quite disappointed as you stated “fix”, not hide. I think those are obvious solutions as far as hiding the colour of a scratch, but I was hoping you’d show how to actually FIX the scratch and make it pretty much invisible with little or no texture of the scratch showing, especially with a scratch going against the grain. I think you should change the word “Fix” in your title to “Hide” or “Disguise”.
