Answer 1

nothing, you cannot repair laminate flooring! the only thing that i can suggest is that you get a french polisher in, then protect the floor with some sort of floor polish afterwards. good luck!

Answer 2

To fix a minor scratch in your laminate floor, you will need to purchase a laminate floor repair kit. You can find these at most hardware stores. Make sure to take a piece of flooring with you so you can match up the colors. Follow the directions on the package.

Most laminate flooring manufacturers will offer their own repair kits also.

These kits will have the right color wood putty (Colorfill is one brand) to fill in the gauges in your floor seamlessly.
