Thanks Mike, but I would hate to spend the money to ship the cabinet both 
ways and pay a big painter's price, when the areas are real small and one is 
just about 3 inches long and narrow. I would like to try to match the paint 
a bit closer and Q tip paint the round areas and use a small thin brush for 
the longer scratch.
Reproducing the spray texture will be a problem and might come out a "flat" 
color.  Thanks for the offer.
