We use our appliances every day whether it’s our fridges, microwaves, ovens or stoves. So how can after months and years of usage keep your appliances looking brand new if they are covered in scratches and dents?
Here are a few tips our professionals at Camtec use themselves to repair the damage.
• Cutting compound- This handy material is generally used by panel beaters for cars and other vehicles, however they are also perfect for buffering out any shallow scratches on appliances. To use you just mix the compound with a bit of water and rub it on the scratch, then buff it out a bit and the scratch should just disappear! Good cutting compound may be hard to find but stores such as supercheap auto offer some brands.
• Enamel Paint- Is best for deep scratches or peeled paint, we recommend to use it for microwaves and fridges. Generally it would be best to hire a professional however if you want to have a go all you have to do is tape around the scratch or mark, paint over the section and then buff it back to make it level and seamless.
• Touch up paint/pens- These are easy to find in auto stores they are used for very small or shallow marks and scratches. They help make the marks less visible and sometimes even completely remove it!
As you can see these materials are generally used for vehicles but are also super handy to keep your unit looking brand new.
