Repairing Damaged Laminate Flooring

I had a friend visit who uses a walker. It left a hairline scratch on my laminate floor. What would be a good way to fill in the scratch? Is there some product I could use to lightly fill in the scratches?

To simply mask the scratches, apply shoe polish of the same color to tint the scratch to match the rest of the flooring.

My laminate hardwood floor has been damaged due to the rollers on my chair. Does any one know of a way to fix this without having to replace sections?

RE: Repairing Damaged Laminate Flooring

Our laminate flooring in our entryway got pretty badly scratched by a sliding closet door. I got a felt- tip touch up pen to match the floor at a home supply store and colored in the scratches. Now they aren't even visible. (01/13/2009)

I have laminate flooring and the other day we were repairing our refrigerator and pulled the frig out and oops. We scratched our flooring. The scratches are not deep.


I have high gloss laminate flooring in my house. I used Orange Glo and ruined it. To remove it, I used a dish sponge (on the rough side) and soapy water to remove it.
