Polish Apple Watch and remove scratches - how it works

It usually doesn't take long for the first scratch to appear in the Apple Watch. You can simply polish out most of the fine scratches. We'll show you how it works.

Remove scratches from the Apple Watch: you need it

You can remove small scratches with household remedies. However, you should exercise caution. You are on the safe side with a special display polish. You need the following utensils:

• Home remedies: You can use toothpaste as home remedies for display polishing. This contains small abrasive particles that grind off barely visible display layers during polishing. You should watch out for cheap toothpaste. This often contains larger particles that scratch the display even further.
• Special polish: A special polish that is designed for polishing out scratches is more suitable. You can get such a paste from Amazon for less than 20 euros.
• Polishing cloth: It is best to use a microfiber cloth for polishing. Most polishing pastes come with one.

Remove scratches from the Apple Watch

You can remove the scratches with toothpaste or with display polish. The process is identical. We advise you to polish the display.

1. Apply a small amount of polish or toothpaste to the display.
2. Use the microfiber cloth to polish the product in circular movements.
3. The deeper the scratch, the more intense and longer you have to polish.
4. If you feel the scratches may be gone, use a slightly damp cloth to remove the polish.
5. If there are still scratches, repeat the process.
6. Finally, polish the display again with the microfiber cloth. An eyeglass cleaning cloth is also very suitable for removing dirt and grease.

Tip: Remove scratches with baking soda

Even with baking soda, you can remove slight scratches from your smartphone or Apple Watch.

1. Mix two teaspoons of baking soda with one teaspoon of water to make a mushy paste.
2. Apply the paste in a small amount to the display.
3. Now polish the mixture in a circular motion using a microfiber cloth.
4. Then clean the display with a second clean cloth, which you can dampen slightly. Glasses cleaning cloths or a microfiber cloth finally bring the screen to a high gloss.
