Non-stick frying pans are in great demand, which, as we know, creates supply.

That's why you can find non-stick frying pans for every taste in the store: cast iron, ceramic, Teflon and even marble.

However, all of them have a significant disadvantage – a tendency to scratch.

Surface defects can occur for several reasons, for example, due to the use of unsuitable kitchen utensils, i.e. those made of metal, or due to the use of abrasive dishwashing detergents.

But that's not the point now - let's find out what to do with a frying pan whose bottom has been scratched.
