Melamine is a laminate used on cabinets; it is hard and scratch resistant. However, over time through repeated use, accidents or misuse, cracks or chips can occur. Using laminate filler in a matching color such as SeamFil can make the crack or chip less noticeable. If you are not satisfied with the look or match of the repair, painting the cabinets is another option.
Step 1
Clean the chip or crack with the solvent to remove any residue.
