We recently have had a new bath fitted (fiberglass/plastic) but during some of the other bathroom work it received 2 scratches.
One is a surface mark (graze) which shows as a dull line in the gloss. Question 1 - Can this be polished to restore its shine. The other mark is more of a small hole (sharp dent) 2-3mm in diameter (about 1-2mm deep). Question 2 - is there some type of plastic filler/gel etc which can be used to fill this. Any other ideas to help would be greatly appreciated. TIA - Ian

Contact the supplier or dealer where you made your purchase. They should be able to put you in touch with someone who can make repairs. Often times contractors/installers do damage during construction, i.e. throwing tools/equipment into tub/showers or failure to install protective cardboard cut outs provided by supplier. Call and complain to installer/contractor/installer. Someone should be responsible for damage
