So I have chips in the Translucent Amber Finish on my front wheel. Does anyone know of anything I can use to touch this up? I have been thinking of shopping for a similar nail polish. Any experience or ideas guys? By the way are the new finishes any better? I would hope that they worked this out. | ||

I can't say for sure, but I think Buell might carry touch up for it. Don't quote me though. | ||

Cat is correct. Buell sells some touch up paint for the wheels, and it works fairly well as long as you don't look too closely: it is brush applied. No spray that I know of. I finally gave up on the amber wheels and had them powder coated, partially because the amber finish was very brittle and delicate, partly because I got tired of the color. | ||

I used a Honda Civic touch up paint. They only offered the color for a short time but it matches really closely. Something like an 02 model year or something. I got the paint accidentally from the parts dept. for marking t-belts so I did not have to check the marks on the block and head. I will see if I can find it and post a part #. | ||

Yep Buell has it in a little nail polish bottle, I got one in my tool box right now. It works ok for little chips, it takes several coats to get it to the right color. Its really thin. | ||

The dealer "touched up" the rim on my XBS after the crash and it looks like a 12 year old did it. You might want to do a search, someone posted the same question here within the last few months. They said that Duplicolor (sp?) has some spray and its almost an exact match. | ||

Duplicolor has discontinued the Metalcast Orange color. |
