    Thanks for the toothpaste tip. Worked a treat.Reckon it has saved me €200 on a hired car scrape charge!

    Did you try washing it with water after on the toothpaste part?

    • @GadgetAddict

      +BanJo yep after I shot this video I gave all the areas another blast of t-cut and then hosed it down with water. Looks great :)

      How about the toothpaste does it still fix the scratch you demonstrated after hosing down with water?

    • @GadgetAddict
      @GadgetAddict  7 років тому +4

      Yep because both the toothpaste and T-cut work by removing a little paint from the car and flattening it out. So the scratch is gone, not just concealed. If the scratch is too deep, it won't work.

    Impressive results! If the scratches weren't 100% gone, that is still great temporary solution in case someone uses a key to draw/write something inappropriate on a car. That could make the drive home little less embarassing.

    Does the T-cut work for any car colour? And how long did you have to leave the toothpaste on before wiping it off?

    Neat idea, when i saw the gell toothpaste i didnt expect it to work but you proved me wrong😗😗😙I was diving in the Maldives once and one of the ithe divers scratched his fish eye lense on some coral. He found some Brasso on the boat and managed to polish the scratch out after about 2 hours. Cost of replacing the lens would have been £2000 gbp, cost of Brasso, a few pence. One word of caution many modern optics have a special coating and this sort of polishing could ruin the lens (case in point gopro)

    I tried to rub some toothpaste on my car's scratches and man, it worked. I just don't know if it will wear out if it happens to rain or something but i just saved a lot of money because of you! Hats off to your videos man. Thanks!

    • @GadgetAddict

      It should be permanent because it works by taking a fine layer of paint off the car. T-Cut goes the extra step of including a colored pigment to try fill in any deeper scratches. That's why it's better to use the right colored T-cut for your car.

    • @benjaminfelicitas7846
      @benjaminfelicitas7846 7 років тому +1

      Gadget Addict Okay thanks. Where did you buy that T-Cut?

    • @GadgetAddict
      @GadgetAddict  7 років тому +1

      I think it was either from Handy Man or Ace Hardware.

    I had no idea that toothpaste did a good job for fixing the scratch car.

  • @eugenebell3166
    @eugenebell3166 5 років тому

    Tried this on my blue Vauxhall, the scratches are 'slightly' less visible but still there. Basically as I see it, toothpaste acts as a mild abrasive, like a watered down Tcut that's all. It depends how much it is scratched, and what finish you are happy with.

  • @jamiemccort8388

    Hi mate, just a quick question,
    Would the toothpaste be effective on dark grey paintwork? Cheers

  • @KiwiGraggle
    @KiwiGraggle 6 років тому +1

    Immense this video is mate.
    I have a diamond black BMW that I recently took delivery of. But in hindsight, black is not the colour to have, even if it does look sexy, the little scratches from just rubbing up against a little twig or something seems to scratch it easily, and it shows.
    I am going to try this toothpaste first, because ultimately, if I took my motor to a bodyshop, they would probably charge me £300 to remove them, and to be honest, I think that is a con.
    The toothpaste idea is really mental. How does it do this?. Makes you wonder what it is your brushing your teeth with.

    Good video, toothpaste does work well, as does more expensive remedies but a word of warning, this only works on surface scratches, if the scratches are very deep and you rub through the clear coat to the base coat you will never get it to shine again and will have to repaint, a way to test this is to spray some wd40 on the scratches and if all disappear then you will be able to rub them out with the toothpaste or scratch remover, by the way wd40 won't fix it , cause text time you wash the car it will be as bad as ever.

    Can you review the WenPod SP1+ gimbal by CD-R King? Thanks.

    • @GadgetAddict
      @GadgetAddict  7 років тому +1

      I doubt it's going to happen. Aside from the fact that it's quite expensive, a lot of recent high-value items from CDRKING have been very low quality so I'm taking a break from cd-r king until their next batch of goodies.

    With toothpaste it's best to use white but leave it on for 5 to 10 minutes then wipe off but it's best just to use tcut

  • @jarednormanyanosbusandtruc321
    @jarednormanyanosbusandtruc321 7 років тому

    maybe for scratch from the motorcycle

    • @GadgetAddict
      @GadgetAddict  7 років тому

      Maybe. I'm really not sure where they came from but considering how close motorbikes get, it's quite possible. I was kinda annoyed at first but then I reminded myself that getting upset about it won't make the scratches disappear. Fortunately they came out easily :)

      +PrinCass Jared 228 TV yep I don't think the brand or type makes much difference. The cheaper the better since it's just going on the car.

    • @adrianglennbionat
      @adrianglennbionat 7 років тому

      Gadget Addict it would work better if you used the white one since it's more abrasive. I'm an actual expert on toothpastes.
