How To Remove Scratches From Resin

Resin is an unfinished material, meaning that the appearance is the same on the surface as it is under the surface. Because of this, scratch removal is uncomplicated. Most scratches can be sanded right out rather quickly using a variety of fine-grit sandpaper.

SCRATCH REMOVAL TOOLS AND MATERIALS:

Warm Water
Soft Cloth
 
#800
Fine-Grit Sandpaper
 
#1200
Fine-Grit Sandpaper
 
Dry Towel
 
Polishing Compound
 
SCRATCH REMOVAL STEPS:
 
   STEP 1  
  Use warm water to remove dirt and dust from the surface.  
     
 
   STEP 2  
  Use #800 grit sandpaper and rub in small, circular motions until the scratch is gone.  
     
 
   STEP 3  
  Follow with #1200 grit sandpaper and rub over the surface of the scratch to smooth and blend.  
     
 
   STEP 4  
  Dry with a towel.
