Scuffed my frame - touch up?
Scuffed the black frame on my K6 around the swingarm pivot bolt. Didn't have my ABBA stand on properly so when I let the bike down it popped off on the nearside and, despite my heroic Schwarzenneger triceps attempts to hold it up, fell onto the offside. I believe one says 'doh' in the common parlance?
The stand did a pretty good job of scuffing the milimetre thick matt black paint on the frame, so now what? Is it just a wee dod of OEM touch up paint or is there something else I can use/do to restore the former glory? |

Snap, I can advise against using an ABBA stand whilst hung over. Top piece of kit though. As per touch up paint no idea.

I tried touching my frame up after an off. You need a satin type black paint.
Be aware you won't be able to blend it in like painted plastic but it will look better than having shiny metal showing through. If you've got a permanent marker you could try using that. |
