How can I remove scratches from the back of an iPhone 5 without replacing the rear panel?

Unlike plastic or glass the color is only within the anodized finish (similar to paint) so any abrasive will only expose more of the base metal. You could try using a magic marker to color the area so it’s not so noticeable. Otherwise, you’ll need to get a case to prevent any more scratches.

If you are talking about the metal you can actually just rub it off, unless its a really deep scratch. Scratches from keys and such rub right off! Works on mine! If you could tell me how to get rid of a back glass scratch that would be great!

there are scratches on the back of my new iphone 6 (gold) Please help me on how to remove it, some scratches are bit deep, but they dont want to replace my phone even when i received it the scratches are already there.

rub a little white toothpaste in a circular motion over the scratches. wait few minutes then rub off toothpaste gently with barely wet paper towels or soft lint free cloth. scratches should be gone

Pour some Campbell chicken noodle soup on it and make sure it’s hot then they’ll go away

All you all need to do is get a washed 2000 type sand paper and slightly rub using it. Then apply some braso paste or liquid and rub with tissue or smooth clothe.

Put some pre-^$$&@@*$@!! fluid on it than rub it in a circular motion with your index finger, after it’s completely dry, lick off the excess. If there are still scratches you can repeat the process.
