Okay guys well I am going through my huge list of things to do to my XB9S and there is one big scratch in the black wrinkle paint on the side of of my case near the shifter. What's the best way to touch up the black wrinkle paint? I know you can buy the exact same stuff in a rattle can from harley, maybe tape off the area about 1/4" around it and lightly mist it to fade it out?

Also, what about detailing the matte black wrinkle paint, whats the best way to clean it and make it look nice and new again?


Thanks,
Spencer

Black sharpie, not exact but will get rid of silver if it's deep. see if it bothers you, if it does, then paint it

I used a paper plate and wrinkle black spray paint , Made a puddle in the plate then used a toothpick to put a dab where I needed it . You would have a hard time finding the chip . I also wrinkle blacked my starter .
