I have small scratches on the back of my iPhone 4s and one on the apple logo. I read that toothpase does remove scratches, which I'm happy about, but I've seen some before-after pictures and the logo and the text are gone! If I do apply toothpase to the back of my iPhone, will the toothpase remove the apple logo and the text at the bottom?
Thanks in advance!
iPhone 4S, iOS 5.0.1
Toothpaste does not remove scratches. It simply smears toothpaste on the back of your phone. If you still think you would like to give it a shot, it will not remove the Apple logo or the lettering (unless you have a 3gs or older). The lettering and the logo are underneath the glass back cover, so there's no way anything could get to them unless you cracked it.
I would suggest getting a case that covers the back. It would keep your phone safe and you wouldn't see the scratches anyway.
ZacPavs,
First let me say I don't agree with "Lordmeats" claims and opinions.
That out of the way - be very sure you want to try polishing the scratches out. The reason I am posting this "caveat" is to remind you that the glass is much like a coated optical lens in that it has an "Oleophobic" coating.
If you try to buff out the scratches you will damage the oleophobic coating and probably end up with something that looks much, much worse than a few mild scratches. !!!
Think of the oleophobic coating as something akin to the "Clear Coat" on your car's paint job.
Does toothpaste remove the apple logo on an iPhone?
