Remove scratches from your lenses with these 7 tricks

2. 🧂 Baking Soda Paste

Baking soda is another gentle abrasive that can polish your lenses.

• Mix one part water with two parts baking soda to form a thick paste.
• Apply a small amount to the scratched lens.
• Buff gently in a circular motion with a soft cloth.
• Rinse and dry carefully.

3. 🧴 Vehicle or Furniture Polish

Some vehicle waxes or furniture polishes can fill in scratches temporarily.

• Apply a small amount of polish to the scratch.
• Use a soft cloth to rub it in gently.
• Buff away excess polish.

This method helps reduce visibility but isn’t a permanent fix.

4. 🍳 Use a Drop of Baby Oil or Mineral Oil

For minor surface scratches, a tiny drop of oil can fill in the scratch and improve clarity.

• Dab a small drop of baby or mineral oil on the scratch.
• Gently rub it with a soft cloth.
• Wipe off excess oil carefully to avoid smudges.

5. 🧼 Apply Baking Soda and Water Paste

A similar method to baking soda alone but often more effective:

• Mix baking soda with water into a paste.
• Rub gently on scratches with a microfiber cloth.
• Rinse thoroughly and dry.
