How to Fix Scratches on a Glass Coffee Table
Having a glass coffee table can be a great way to bring a modern feel to your home, but if the table becomes scratched, the look can be less than desirable. Often, the temptation is just to replace the table, but with a few easy steps, you can fix those scratches yourself and save some money.
Things you’ll need:
- Sandpaper
- Polishing cloth
- Polish
- Soft cloth
Step 1: Sand
Using a medium-grit sandpaper, lightly sand the scratch. Move the sandpaper around for a few seconds to avoid deepening the scratch. Once you’re done, use a soft cloth to wipe away the dust and debris from the sandpaper.
Step 2: Polish
Using a polishing cloth, apply a small amount of glass polish to the affected area. If necessary, polish the entire top of the table, but avoid applying too much polish as it can be difficult to remove.
Step 3: Clean
After polishing, use a soft cloth to wipe away any excess polish. Be sure to use a gentle motion and don’t rub too hard or you could end up scratching the glass again.
Step 4: Dry
When you’re finished, gently dry the table with a soft cloth. This will help ensure that no polish remains behind.
By following these easy steps, you can fix scratches on your glass coffee table and save some money in the process. So don’t replace your table yet – have a go at fixing the scratches and you may be pleasantly surprised!
