Spot repairing laminate flooring often involves addressing minor damage like scratches or chips. Based on the provided information which focuses on the finishing steps after filling a scratch, here's how you can complete that part of the repair process.
Finishing Steps for a Filled Laminate Scratch
After a scratch on your laminate flooring has been filled (the method of filling is not detailed in the reference), there are important steps to finish the repair and help it blend in.
Here are the finishing actions you might take:
- Sanding (If Needed): Use fine grit sandpaper to slightly sand the area after filling the scratch. This helps smooth out any excess filler and level the repair with the surrounding surface.
- Cleaning: After sanding, wipe the area clean with a damp cloth to remove any dust or debris generated during the process.
- Applying Varnish: Use a small brush to apply a coat of varnish to the filled-in area. This step can help seal the repair and match the sheen of the surrounding laminate.
Please note that this information specifically details the finishing steps after a scratch has been filled. The reference does not cover the initial steps of how to choose a filler or the process of applying the filler itself.
