Touch up paint for my beloved wounded 05 FJR

[frayne]

Yes, I dropped the girl yesterday, !@#$%^&*()_. The damage is pretty minor and I can't see putting out the dough for new tupperware. Anybody ever attempted doing a touch up paint job on minor blemishes and if so, what kind of paint did you use and were you happy with the results ? Appreciate any and all replies.

Or you can send them Garauld. He does fine work, and for a great price. Shipping is the only *****.

Without picutres, I can't make too much comment. Is it all scratched up, like a '72 VW bus? Or are these minor blemishes, which blend if you take a few steps back?

I've found that if you live with a minor scratch for a while, you tend to ignore it. Most other people never notice the thing, anyway.

Othewise, I also recommend colorrite.com.

Thanks much !!!!

i bought the colorrite to match my 05 and it was and is perfect. I had one of my bags repainted at the begining of the year. A couple years ago I backed into a guard rail when I was trying to get off my bike quickly to help a fallen brother.
