touching up scrapes and scratches

Replies are disabled for this topic. Start a new one or visit our Help Center.

So, I fell tonight while running.  Ran on some rough road I guess.  A few nicks and scrapes on the metal case around the Ionic face, and a slight scratch on the face surface.  Any suggestions for touch up?

Ouch! I believe the screen on the Fitbit is version 3 of Corning's Gorilla Glass. You will have to decide if any of the methods to repair the scratches are worth the possibility of making it worse but a couple of things you can try without harm is a Magic Eraser.. just rub continually and see if it helps. also a white pencil eraser and rub it slowly and steadily across the surface. 

 

some people claim toothpaste, corn starch and all kinds of stuff.. the 2 I mentioned are fairly common and accepted to work. 


Lastly, it would be a drastic measure but you can sand and re polish just like a faded headlight but I would really weight out this option. Best of luck!

Magic Eraser might be a safe option?  Thank you!  

 

And thankfully no no harm to my Fitbit.  I should be back on the road in a day or 2.  Thanks for your reply!
