Many drivers have experienced the frustration of noticing a scratch in the paintwork of their car for the first time.<\/p>\n
However, whilst scratches can easily worsen the appearance of a car, a TikTok user has demonstrated how removing imperfections can be a straightforward experience.<\/p>\n
In the video, the social media user Ovet Reynoso explained that minor scratches can be removed with simple tools.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou\u2019re going to want to attach this pad onto a drill, just like that, that should be ready to go. Then you want to apply some Scratch X onto the pad in a little \u2018X\u2019 formation.<\/p>\n
\u201cThen grab the buff head [pad] and you want to smear [the Scratch X] everywhere at speed. Now go ahead and grab your microfibre cloth and wipe off all the excess.\u201d<\/p>\n
