My roommate is replacing his door. I moved it, and then this sudden gust of wind (DAMN ERNESTO) blew in and tipped the door over a bit and it fell over onto the fridge, which left some paint scuffs on the plastic fridge handle as well as a dent and scratch on the fridge.

What can I use to remove the paint scuffs on the handle and fridge? And is there anything I can do to fix up that dent??

Well, you can always use paint thinner for the paint and call the pop-a-dent guys (for cars) to fix the dent.

See if you can get a new panel for the dent. I know some of these stainless steel fridges have replaceable panels that you can just swap out.
