Light scratches are easier to remove. For deeper scratches, you have to use a laminate filler made of wax, which conceals the existing scratches and protects the surface.

Wipe and clean the laminate surface with a soft cloth and a cleaning agent suitable for laminate. Thoroughly remove dust and dirt from the scratched area with a damp cloth.
Rub a laminate filler over the scratches and allow the filler to dry. Drying can take a few hours depending on the amount of filler.

With a wax pencil of the same colour as the rest of the laminate, you can make the scratch disappear visually. Move the pen in one direction and do not apply too much colour.

Use a dry, soft cloth to wipe excess wax from the surface and polish the scratched area so that it looks nice and shiny again.
