Hi Fred, I was in your coach before you bought her. Not many mid door PTs around. Hope you get it fixed.

Fred: If it is minor, the laminate company might have a filler that
would correct it, but I would bet it would show because your laminate
is probably a gloss finish.

A good laminate installer could overlay that entire panel if
you can find a match for it. Mayber the records of your coach build
are still available in the files at the factory. It so happens with
mine, I have a build folder in my Blue Box that gives the colors and
manufacturer.

I have repaired a dent by using a kitchen towel over the dent and
heating the dent spot with a steam iron. Care must be taken to only
draw the dent back out flat. A repair kit can be purchased to do any
addition repair or you can go to a good counter top fab shop and they
can do the finishing touches. Good Luck!

Hi Fred,
I can give you a weird solution that has worked for me in the past.
If the damage is on an edge, I took Bondo and fixed the missing area.
Then took small paint, the kind you find for using in model building.
I experimented on a piece of plastic till I got the color mixing the
same (or almost a match)then painted over the Bondo. I finished it off
with a masked off area around the damage and covered it with a clear
spray. Worked for me.
