I was foolish and scratched my laminate countertop, which I would like to repair. Everything I have found online shows solutions for filling in chips (or deeper cuts), mainly in laminate that has a uniform colour. My counter top varies in colour, and the scratches appear to only be in the top coating, so I am hoping there is another solution.
If I wipe a damp cloth over the scratches the all but disappear, but once it dries again the scratches reappear.
Is there something I can do to recreate how it looks once damp, but permanently?

It's worth trying a high-quality paste wax before going too crazy with more involved fixes. Applied correctly you shouldn't even notice the wax. If you mess up or dislike it, wax is soluble in acetone so it's easily removed. You can't really make anything worse, in other words.
