What are the best practices for repairing scratches or dents on WPC outdoor trash cans?

WPC (Wood Plastic Composite) outdoor trash cans are durable, but they can get scratched or dented. Here are the best practices for repairing them. For minor scratches, often a simple cleaning with soap and water is enough. Deeper scratches or scuffs can be gently buffed out with fine-grit sandpaper (around 220-grit). Always sand in the direction of the wood grain pattern. For small dents, a clever method is to use heat. Carefully apply heat from a hairdryer to the dented area. The WPC material may expand and the dent could pop out. For more significant damage, use a WPC repair kit. Clean the area, apply the colored repair paste, and smooth it with a putty knife. Once dry, sand it lightly to blend with the surrounding surface. To prevent future damage, regularly clean your trash can and avoid impacts from sharp objects. Following these steps will help maintain the appearance and longevity of your WPC trash can.
