Laminated cupboards and benchtops – surface damage (cuts, scratches, chips)
Listed under: Interior, fixtures and fittings, benchtops
Cause
Not using cutting boards, accidental damage, or moisture
Repair
- a light buff with a mildly abrasive kitchen/bathroom cleaner or toothpaste may help. Colour-matched filler is available for some colours. For flat tops, new laminate can be applied over the existing surface. Replace badly damaged tops which have coved (rounded) upstands or rounded edges
