I used PTEX to fix some of the deep scratches in my bases at the beginning of the year and mine just had two smooth sides, so I'd just use the smooth side if I were you

ptex is only useful for deep scratches that dont breach the core. if anything under the base is exposed you have to take it to a shop to get a weld as ptex candles or sheets wont bond to the core
