How it works

  1. Upload your photo

    Upload a sharp photo of the vehicle from a clear angle. Natural daylight and minimal reflections help the AI handle car scratches accurately. JPG, PNG, WebP up to 7MB.

    Expect: Most edits complete in 20-45 seconds. Complex changes may need 1-2 refinements.
  2. Describe your edit

    Type what you want: 'remove car scratches.' Be specific about details for best results. The AI understands natural language — no technical skills needed.

    Tip: Specify the exact color or finish you want — 'metallic midnight blue' works better than just 'blue.'

    Copy one of these to get started:

    Cleaning up a photo before selling or listing remove car scratches completely — fill in the area naturally so it looks like it was never there. Match the surrounding colors and textures exactly
    Preparing a clean photo for social media remove car scratches and clean up the background so the main subject stands out. The result should look naturally photographed, not edited
    Professional portfolio or client presentation remove car scratches with precision — this is for a professional context. Ensure there are zero artifacts, the lighting remains consistent, and edges are perfectly clean
    Printing or framing a meaningful photo remove car scratches from this photo I want to print and frame. Make the removal flawless at full resolution — no smudging, no color mismatches
    2 more prompts
    Restoring a sentimental or family photo remove car scratches while keeping the rest of the photo exactly as is — this has sentimental value and I want to preserve every other detail perfectly
    Quick fix for a real estate or product photo remove car scratches — this is for a listing and needs to look clean and professional. Remove it and make the space look open and uncluttered
  3. Review the result

    Inspect the edited area for consistent paint reflection, proper panel line continuity, and matching surface texture. Zoom into edges where changes meet original bodywork.

  4. Refine if needed

    If paint reflections look inconsistent or panel edges need blending, tap markers on those sections and describe corrections like 'match the metallic sheen to the adjacent panel' or 'smooth the color transition.'

    Tip: Markers are optional. Try without them first — the AI usually gets it right.

Detailed Guides by Scenario

📷

Professional Photography

Remove unwanted car scratches from professional photo shoots, client deliverables, and stock photography to achieve clean, polished results.

Common Scenarios

  • Client portrait sessions where the car scratches appeared unexpectedly in frame
  • Stock photography that needs the car scratches removed for broader commercial appeal
  • Product photography with distracting car scratches in the background

Best Practices

  • Zoom in and place a marker directly on the car scratches for the most accurate removal
  • Run a second pass if any faint outlines or shadows remain after the first edit
  • Describe the desired background fill — e.g., 'replace the car scratches with clean wall' for predictable results
📷

Real Estate & Property Listings

Clean up property photos by removing car scratches that distract buyers and lower perceived home value.

Common Scenarios

  • Listing photos where the car scratches clutters the frame and makes rooms look smaller
  • Exterior shots with car scratches that hurt curb appeal
  • Open house photos that need the car scratches removed before uploading to MLS

Best Practices

  • Shoot the space first, then edit — AI removal works better than awkward staging workarounds
  • After removing the car scratches, check that floor lines and wall edges still look straight
  • Process all listing photos in one session so lighting and style stay consistent
📷

Personal & Social Media

Fix personal photos by removing car scratches before sharing on social media, printing, or gifting.

Common Scenarios

  • Vacation photos where the car scratches appeared in an otherwise perfect shot
  • Family photos with car scratches that distract from the people in the frame
  • Profile pictures and dating app photos that need the car scratches cleaned out

Best Practices

  • Save the original photo first — edit a copy so you can always go back
  • For group photos, mark the car scratches carefully to avoid affecting nearby people
  • If the first result isn't perfect, try rewording your prompt with more detail about the background

If something looks off

Paint color doesn't look realistic

Why: Car paint has complex reflections that need matching.

Try: Specify the finish: 'metallic pearl white with realistic clear coat reflections'

Tip: Adding 'metallic' or 'matte' finish type makes car paint look dramatically more real.

Modification only applied to part of the car

Why: Reflections, shadows, or complex angles confused the AI.

Try: Tap markers on the missed areas and regenerate: 'apply the same change to this area too'

Tip: Cars photographed from a 3/4 angle give the AI the best coverage of body panels.

Reflections in paint don't match

Why: The AI didn't update environmental reflections in the new paint.

Try: Add: 'update the reflections and environment map on the new paint to match the surroundings'

Tip: Overcast lighting produces the most believable paint previews — harsh sun creates complex reflections.

Interior change looks flat

Why: Car interiors have complex textures and ambient occlusion.

Try: Add: 'maintain leather grain texture, stitching detail, and natural shadows'

Tip: Interior photos work best with even, diffused lighting rather than direct sunlight.

Quick answers

Can I undo the edit if I don't like the result?

Yes, you always keep your original photo. If the result isn't right, you can adjust your prompt and regenerate, or simply download your untouched original.

Does the AI remove car scratches work on mobile?

Yes, EditThisPic works fully in your mobile browser — no app download needed. It also has an iOS app available on the App Store.

How do I get better results when I remove car scratches?

Be specific in your prompt. Instead of vague descriptions, mention exact colors, materials, styles, or positions. Use markers to point the AI at the exact area you want changed.

Is my photo kept private when I remove car scratches?

Yes. Your photo is processed in real-time by the AI and is not stored on our servers after editing. No account is required to use the tool, and we don't collect or share your images. Your original file stays on your device.

How does EditThisPic compare to Photoroom for removing car scratches?

EditThisPic uses AI that understands natural language, so you describe the edit you want instead of using complex tools. It works instantly in your browser with no software to install or learn. For removing car scratches, you simply type what you want and the AI handles the rest in 20-45 seconds.

Will the removed result look realistic and natural?

Yes. The AI reconstructs missing or damaged areas by understanding what the original image likely looked like, matching grain, color tones, and textures for a seamless restoration.

Can I remove car scratches on my phone?

Yes. EditThisPic works in any mobile browser — iPhone, Android, or tablet. The full editor loads on mobile with touch-optimized controls. No app download needed, though an iOS app is also available. Upload from your camera roll and edit on the go.

Can the AI match my car's exact paint color?

Yes. The AI analyzes the surrounding paint in your photo to match color, metallic finish, and clear coat appearance. For best results, photograph the scratch in even daylight so the AI can sample the true paint color from nearby areas.

Can I remove car scratches for multiple photos at once?

Currently, EditThisPic processes one photo at a time for the best AI results. Upload each photo individually and use the same prompt — the process takes about 20-45 seconds per image. For large batches, a paid plan gives you unlimited edits without waiting.

What makes a good photo for removing car scratches?

Well-lit photos with clear subjects produce the best results. Avoid heavily compressed or very small images. Front-facing angles typically work better than extreme side angles. The AI can work with most photos, but higher quality input means higher quality output.

What types of photos work best with this tool?

JPG, PNG, and WebP photos up to 7MB work best. The AI handles photos from any camera or phone. High-resolution images with good lighting produce the best results. Extremely dark, heavily compressed, or very small images may produce less precise edits.

Can I also enhance the remaining photo in the same edit?

Yes! You can combine multiple edits in one prompt. For example, ask to remove car scratches and enhance the remaining photo at the same time. The AI understands complex multi-step instructions. For very different changes, separate prompts may give better control over each edit.
