Repair Scratches on Laminate Floor

Surface scratches on laminate floors are quick to fix with the right marker or fill stick. The key is light, gradual application that builds to a seamless match.

• Touch Up Markers
• Fill Sticks
• Dry cloth
• Cleaning solvent

1. Clean the surface to remove dirt and floor polish.
2. Select the closest color marker to the floor finish.
3. Apply with light strokes along the scratch.
4. Build color gradually until the scratch disappears.
5. Blend with a dry cloth to even the sheen.
6. Allow the repair to set before walking on it.

• Less is more — over-applying makes scratches more visible, not less.
• Work in natural light to judge the color match accurately.
• Keep a matching marker on hand for quick future touch-ups.
