On my 19" Rays I have numerous scratches from the sockets used to remove the wheels.
What would be the best method to cover the scratches up? I was thinking some touch up paint and clean coat. But seems hard to find a good match to the color of the wheels.

Thanks.

 

Your best bet is to sand all the wheels down and get them resprayed..

 

Any touchup is going to look sloppy on any kind of metallic paint. But for future reference, wrap your sockets in electrical tape so they don't scratch up the socket holes.

 

You may be able to make the nicks and scratches less apparent with a paint pen or touch up paint, but it probably won't quite look perfect. Some wheel refinishing places or mobile repair places could bring it back to looking new though.

 

Trust me it was not my hands that did the damage. Which is why I bought the jack and stands and mount the tires myself now.

Wheels are in good shape expect for the area where the sockets have hit. No curb rash etc..

Hmmm, spraying the entire wheel seems overkill.

Thanks for the input

 

Id use an airbrush.
