touch up paint
A perfect touch up paint (black) for any dings or scratches, Dupli-color vinyl & fabric paint, get it at any Checker or Auto-Zone. Works on both metal and plastic, goes on more like a dye than a paint, will not wear or peel.

Doesn't it stand out, when the surface was anodized with the color?
The paint should definitely be noticeable... Good tip, though

No, it is not noticable, it doesn't go on like a coat of paint and dries to the same texture and matt finish as the anodizing, (I'me a bit of a perfectionist on stuff like that). Try a small test spot in an out of site place, like maybe underneath on the battery case.

Nice... I was very worried about the coat-ish look, since i'm also a bit of a perfectionist on that area myself

How does this hold up when you clean the area?

I'll have to keep this tip in mind for next time.
I've been using a magic marker for my touch ups, quickly followed by a light dabbing with a rag. Almost invisible... |

Part / Stock Number Please
@jharrington1943
Could you provide the Auto-zone stock number of your “perfect touch up paint (black) for any dings or scratches, Dupli-color vinyl & fabric paint”. On the Auto-zone site I've found Dupli-color touch-up paint and Rust-Oleum vinyl & fabric paint but no Dupli-color vinyl & fabric paint. So which product has worked well for you? |
