Interior scratch repair

[bbeverag]

I let my wife borrow my truck and she thought shoving a box full of frames with sharp corners between the front passenger seat and the dash was a wise choice. I am now left with a few scratches on my otherwise pristine interior. Does anyone have any suggestions for how to repair those or at least obscure scratches on the ebony glove box? I considered a sharpie might be helpful, but didn't want to dive in until I consulted the experts.

Post a picture. You can get different colors of sharpies, and maybe find a less black one?

You could try to get a replacement. https://www.google.com/search?q=202...EwMDYzajBqN6gCCLACAQ&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8

Could try reading through here. Never repaired mine before trading it but surely this article can assist.

ok dudes i did my best on my own. I used an interior cleaner, then some paint scratch polish. It helped but was still not great. I took a black sharpie and soaked a paper towel which I then rubbed on the scratched area. Afterward I used some more paint scratch polish and it is pretty good...

Let's see a pic!

I recently scratched the door plastic right beside the window. Nothing major. I cleaned the area and used a bit of rubbing compound, and after about 2 months in the sun, the scratches are gone.

If it is minor scratches on hard plastic, you can often use a hot air gun and "carefully" warm the spot and the mark will disappear
