    Create a thick paste by stirring the water and baking soda together.

  3. 3

    Rub the paste over the scratches in a circular motion using a clean soft cloth.

  4. 4

    Take care not to apply the paste in too great a quantity as it is abrasive and could damage the non-scratched screen glass.

  5. 5

    Use a damp clean cloth to remove any excess paste.

  • Do you have children? Baby powder is a great choice for phone screen scratch removal:

  1. 1

  2. 2

    Gently rub it in.

  3. 3

    This is a quick cosmetic fix.

  • Don’t forget, if your phone is still under warranty, home remedies could void it.
