Anyone got any top tips. Been on YouTube, just wondered if anyone had any experience?
TIA

Nearest I came to it is something dropped out of cupboard and badly dented it. :(. I filled it with some resin from Halfords and I used acrylic paint to match it up. Then sprayed it with varnish all over. Don't know if that helps at all?

The colour match part was good but my filling and sanding is rubbish.

Thank you Vipar. :). It doesn't look quite so good in certain light... but it's a working table. :)

I repaired a hole in a grey caravan worktop, I use Gel coat filler and mixed a drop of black Humbrol paint to colour match. Repair wasn't noticeable unless you knew it was there.
 
Not sure if it's a "dimpled" surface on it?
If so, it might be difficult to fill and repair therefore it might be better to cover it with another full piece of matching \ contrasting Formica (or similar).
