A question for the experts:

We have a tile on the close wall that has been damaged over the years
by the hook for the door colliding with it. This has now worn away
the glaze into a channel. I appreciate that a cosmetic restoration
would be very difficult, but what could I do to prevent further
damage? I wondered about paint or epoxy resin adhesive or superglue,
or maybe some sort of patch like a bandage? Any ideas appreciated.

Depends how good your colour vision is and how uniform the tile. White
can be either easy or very hard to match. Pigment loaded epoxy can be
made to look close enough to ceramics to pass. Better stuff available
from the likes of Fred Aldous craft stores if you need an exotic colour.

Practice a few times to get the mix exactly right before you commit to
the actual job. Cured colour can be different to wet colour.
ie. Colour up a batch of the resin and then add the hardener/catalyst.

When you are happy that the cured material is a good match then go for
it. You may have to match colour *and* surface lustre.

As others have said a door stop in the right place will solve that
impact problem going forwards. Put the thing in the right place or your
next complaint will be the door dropping off its hinges.
