I did a repair like that about 17 years ago and you still can’t detect it. I bought a replacement low cabinet for my Westy (mine was missing when I got the car). The front corner near the stove had been crushed in shipping. I built it back up with bondo and shaped it square and flush with file and sandpaper. I took some white rustoleum paint in a jar cap and added a few drops of black and a few drops of red until it was a perfect match.  Two coats over primer over the bondo. No one could ever tell it had been damaged unless I told them and even then they would have
To take my word for it.

Rust-Oleum has a product called Appliance Touch-up – tiny bottle with a little brush attached to the cap, like fingernail polish.  I don’t know about colors, but I’d think you could tint it anyway.  Multiple coats to build up deeper dings.
