Scratched Rim!!!!

[MarkhamMazda3]

I was driving into my garage and didn\'t know that my dad had put some rocks down on my side of the garage. I drove in and my front left rim scraped pne of the rocks. there are scraches goign around 1/5 of the outside of the rim. It is like when you rub a curb, and it looks so mewhat sanded away. The scraches are not that deep. I was wondering if anybody knew of any type of touch up paint/filler for rims. I dont wanna put down another 400 just for one rim. SOMEONE PLEASE HELP, IT IS DRIVING ME CRAZY

Try a Google search on rim repair or check the Yellow/Telus pages...

There are shops that can fix it

We use Carcone\'s in the past to refinish Millenia rims. The only problem with them is that they have to see the rim first to determine if they can refinish it.

I have a small scratch I\'d like to try to sand and repaint myself. Any idea what paint I should buy?

Thanks.

Some customers have used silver touch-up paint on their factory rims and it a close match.
