Rounding a corner,the wife's water bottle fell out of it's holder and left a scratch in the trunk body.

Of course I stop and she runs back to get it....good news..she found a tape measure.

I've been pecking around on google,but haven't found anything in Billet Silver.

Anyone have any ideas or resources?

I scratched the fender on my hour's-old Tri-Glide, On the left fender, About 3 inches long, Blue paint... I remembered an old caveman trick, So I took one of my grandkids blue crayon, And matched the color....Ran it down the scratch, and let it sit in the hot sun...[A heat gun will work also] till it melted in , Then waxed over it, I can not see the scratch at all... Your results may differ, But i never seen a paint pen that covers a scratch without leaving a tell-tail darker line....

Great tip, I'll certainly be exploring that.
 


Dr. Color Chip worked well for me after I found a scratch on a used car I hadn't seen before we bought it.
