# Removing Surface Scratches From a Black Microwave
While white microwaves might show dirt and grime more than black microwaves, black microwaves might show scratches and marks more easily. A surface scratch on the sleek black design of your microwave can be very noticeable and take away from the kitchen aesthetics. Light scratches can be carefully reduced or removed to get the microwave looking sleek and all black once more.
