Hi,

I got my S9+ in April and due to bad luck, I managed to scratch up my screen before the screen protector I ordered came in the mail. The scratches were very shallow and ran down the sides of the screen because when I dropped it, it slide across the floor.

I put on my screen protector which adhered to the screen via a special liquid that hardened via UV light. It filled in all the scratches and made them invisible. Recently, I cracked the screen protector because it fell out on my pocket while driving and got wedged under the seat. 

Before I apply my second screen protector, I was wondering if I could possibly get my phone serviced locally and have the shallow scratches fixed.

For a proper job - I think that you're going to need to get the screen replaced - If you're using Whitestone Dome it should be replaced under warranty I believe - So unless you have the Carrier insurance - Or you don't mind spending a few hundred dollars - You may just want to replace the screen protector with the same brand...

you could try Spigen Glas tr nano liquid, I wouldn't trust it for screen protection but it might fill in some fine scratches.

Tried that and it fixed a few scratches but made others worse by giving off a rainbow effect. Don't recommend it.

From the description of the Screen protector that they were using all - It sounds like Whitestone Dome glass which uses a liquid adhesive & it fills in scratches as well as prove a tempered glass screen protector - Don't know exactly what they want to do or how much they want to spend?

Hey @NavXIII,

If you'd like to get those scratches repaired, you can contact your local Samsung Service Center (http://www.samsung.com/ca/support/servicelocation/) for assistance.

Hope this helps!
