It’s heartbreaking when your beautiful glass coffee table becomes covered in scratches. To keep your coffee table looking its best, here are some tips to avoid scratches:
Use Coasters and Placemats
- Always use coasters – even if you don’t have drinks on the glass table, you should still use coasters to protect the surface from scratches
- Use placements – not just coasters, you can use placemats too. Both will protect your glass table from scratches.
Regular Maintenance
- Clean the glass regularly – from time to time, you should clean your glass table with a damp cloth. Make sure you wipe away all dust, dirt, and crumbs.
- Polish the glass – once in a while, you should also polish the glass with a glass cleaner. This will help to reduce the appearance of scratches.
Removing Scratches
If you do have scratches on your glass coffee table, here are some tips for removing them:
- Clean the scratched area – first, make sure to clean the area with a damp cloth to get rid of any dirt or dust.
- Apply toothpaste – you can use toothpaste to fill in the scratches. Rub it onto the glass, and leave it for a few minutes before wiping it off. This will help to reduce the appearance of the scratches.
- Use a glass polisher – you can buy a glass polisher at most hardware stores. Rub the polisher over the scratched area to fill in the scratch and reduce its appearance.
