How to Fix Scratches on SUVs and Trucks

SUVs and trucks are workhorses — they go more places, carry more loads, and face more hazards than regular passenger cars. That means more opportunities for scratches. Here’s how to keep your SUV or truck looking great.

Common Scratch Sources for SUVs and Trucks

  • Off-road driving: Branches, rocks, and debris cause scratches on lower panels and bumpers
  • Loading and unloading: Cargo scratches the bed and tailgate of trucks
  • Parking: Larger vehicles are harder to maneuver in tight spaces
  • Towing: Hitch connections and trailer chains can scratch the rear

Special Considerations for Trucks

Truck beds are particularly vulnerable to scratches from cargo. Consider a bed liner for protection, and use the Magic Pen FixMyCar™ to treat any scratches on the painted surfaces of the bed and tailgate.

  • Use running board protectors to prevent door dings
