6 Ways To Repair A Tablet Screen

Scratches on a tablet screen are infuriating! It messes with
the function and aesthetic of the screen making it difficult to use. Do not run
out and buy a new screen or tablet yet! There are some ways to fix minor nicks
and scratches on tablet screens that are inexpensive. Here are a couple of DIY
methods to fix those pesky scratches.

1.Prevention 

It may be a little too late to mention this, but for future reference, storing
a tablet in a bag is a great way to protect it from most accidents. When not in
use you can store it in one of our leather bags, like The
Richmond Slim Line Traveler IPAD Bag. Okay, enough motherly scolding, we’ll
get into discussing how you can repair the scratches you already have on your
tablet.

2.Toothpaste 

Just like on CDs, DVDs, etc.- toothpaste can also help to repair any scratches
on a tablet screen. Just add a tiny bit of toothpaste onto your finger or a
q-tip then dab it on the affected in area in a circular motion. Afterwards, using
a slightly damp cloth wipe down the entire screen to completely remove the
toothpaste.

3.Fine Sand Paper 

First off, this can’t be done with just some regular old sand paper and elbow
grease, you need special supplies. For those of you who love to acquire tools,
we know you don’t mind hearing that! First off you’ll need super fine
sandpaper. You’ll also need a sanding drill along with an attachment that will
fit the fine sand paper.

4.Swirl Remover 

Swirl Remover is an oil-based product that is designed to take off scratches
from surfaces. But, if a screen has an oleophobic coating, do NOT use any type
of polish to try to fix the scratch. If you decide to try this method, seal the
ports and buttons of the pone with tape to make sure the Swirl Remover doesn’t
get inside of the phone.

5.Baking Soda 

Baking soda has many magical uses, and you can add this on as another one. Make
a thick paste out of baking soda and water by mixing two parts baking soda to
one part water. Put a small amount of the paste on a microfiber cloth then
gently wiped on the damaged part of the screen. Use a clean part of cloth and
some water to remove any residue of the paste.
