Hi all,
Can anyone suggest where I can buy white touch up paint for ikea cabinets / wardrobes (PAX ikea design)? I’ve looked on Amazon but you’re never sure whether white is the “ikea white”…thanks!!

You could try repainting the whole thing instead. If you prime it with Zinsser Bin you can paint it any colour you like. There's lots of YouTube videos and blog posts on the subject.0

Hi, I have a bank of 4 wardrobes (that look like built ins) with draws and shelves within. The scratches are only 10cms long. I imagine it would take 2 mins to touch up the paint vs much much longer to repaint the whole bank of wardrobes.0

I primed some flaking outdoor woodwork with Zinser Bulls Eye 123. When my kids got some chips on their white Ikea furniture I used this to touch it up and I have to say it's a fairly good match. I am not sure it would be effective for large areas and I'm not sure I would buy a full tin for the sake of a few chips, but it worked for me.

Other option is to just buy new doors as they're modular?0
