if they're minor (ie just scratches) I really wouldn't worry about it. But you'd get Ptex at a snowboard shop, along with other necessary supplies.

McLOVIN, you'll need a wax scraper of some sort too. read up on snowboard base repair (google it), its basically the same thing. I wouldnt worry about it though if it was me. I slid some sketchy sharp cement and went completely through the durasurf in one of the scratches. It didn't effect the board at all.

if its ur first time using Ptex it probably wont be that pretty. I know my first time trying to fix my snowboard didn't quite come out how i imagined. ahah
