Disguise chips, dings and scratches in porcelain bathtubs, sinks, toilets and major appliances with a quick and easy touch-up glaze. Glazes are available from home centers, hardware stores and paint suppliers. We used a glaze from Kit Industries (Bone No. AS-7, $15; 800-526-3186; www.porc-a-fix.com). The company matches the original manufacturer's colors nearly perfectly. Apply the glaze.
