Do I need to mark the scratches before describing?
No! Just describe what you want: 'remove the scratches' or 'fix the scratch marks.' The AI detects scratches automatically - they have a distinctive linear pattern.
Can this fix deep scratches that removed image content?
Yes, but results depend on how much content is missing. The AI reconstructs scratched areas based on surrounding context. Light scratches on simple backgrounds restore perfectly. Deep scratches across faces or complex details may need multiple passes.
Does this work on scanned physical photos?
Absolutely! Scanned prints are the most common use case. The AI handles surface scratches from handling, storage damage, and age-related wear. Scan at the highest resolution possible for best scratch removal results.
Can I remove scratches from very old or faded photos?
Yes! The AI works on photos of any age. For best results with faded images, consider using 'remove scratches and enhance overall image quality' to address both issues together. Severely degraded photos may need multiple editing passes.
What about creases or fold marks?
Creases work similarly to scratches. Use 'remove the crease marks' or 'fix the fold lines' in your prompt. Deep creases with color loss may need the AI to reconstruct more content, similar to deep scratches.
