Hello everyone, I have noticed some light scratches on my Ikea Brimnes fronts that have occurred through normal use. These are not deep damages but rather fine surface scratches. Since I would like to improve the appearance of the fronts without having to replace them completely, I am interested in how to best repair such scratches.
Which methods or products are most suitable for covering or fixing these minor scratches? I have heard of furniture markers, waxes, or special repair kits, but I am unsure what actually works well and is durable on the melamine-coated surface of Brimnes.
Does anyone have experience repairing furniture from the Ikea range, especially Brimnes, and can provide specific tips on making scratches as invisible as possible? Thank you in advance!

I will probably start by cleaning carefully and then experiment with a furniture touch-up pen.That sounds like a good plan! I once had minor scratches on similar surfaces myself, and the combination of cleaning, then using a furniture touch-up pen, followed by light waxing significantly improved the appearance.
It’s important not to get discouraged if the first attempt isn’t perfect. Sometimes repeating the treatment two or three times helps. A bit of patience will definitely pay off!
