Yes! Bring one of your cabinet doors to a good local paint store and ask to match the color and FINISH - like "eggshell" or "satin" or whatever. Use a lightweight body filler - something meant for cars - to fill the dings. Dab the paint on with a sponge brush and then dab the semi-dry paint with different kinds of cloth to match the slight texture of the laminate. Best to experiment on the backside of a cabinet door first. Works like a charm. Jeff
