Scratched my rim....

Guys, i scratched my rim pretty bad today, i am not planning to get it professionally fixed, just looking for some touch-paint to cover it up, anybody knows where i can get touch-up paint that is similar to the rim's silver color?

Go to Canadian Tire and pick up some Duplicolor silver. Experiment on a scap piece of cardboard and hold it up next to the wheel. If the match looks close then go ahead and touch up your wheel.

Re: Scratched my rim....

I took my car to the dealer in early june just before I hurt my foot and couldnt drive for a month. Anyway, near the end of June my dad noticed my rim was scratched and it must of happened at the dealer because it was a yellow scratch like the jack stands they used.

If I would have noticed sooner I would have complained but since it was a couple weeks I couldnt really prove anything,,,

I'll try that touch up paint since its not to bad...

Re: Scratched my rim....

Has anyone actually tried this paint?

I just got less then an inch scrape on one of my 17 inch rim spokes.

It's bothering me but I don't want to make it worse. Car's a lease. Such minor blemishes are forgiven as is.
