How to fix chips on kitchen cupboard wall?

Hello,

 

Have these scratches/chips on kitchen cupboard wall. Occurred because the door of the kitchen cabinet was jambing and then when opening made a mark/scratch on the wall next to it. Can you please advise on how best to improve/fix this? Will those wax crayons help - Waxstix Timbermate Touch up wax crayon and if so what colour would you advise?

Re: Chips/scratches on kitchen cupboard wall

Hi @gardenia8888,

 

Thank you for your question.

 

It looks like the front edge of the door has picked up some colour from the wall while rubbing against it.

 

Is it possible to get some photos from different angles?

 

I can't say I'm 100% certain of the context of what I'm looking at.

 

You might be able to use some White Iron-on Melamine Edge to cover the edge of the chipboard.

 

You could also paint this edge with white enamel paint.

 

Either of these options would offer protection for the cupboard, but I'm not sure which would be better in this context.

 

Let me know what you think.

 

Jacob

Hi Jacob,

 

Attached are some more photos as requested of the above problem. It's a ledge with marks on it.
