826M Bi-Color Silver Touch up Paint

easm3 · 06-02-2022, 02:59 PM

Got some minor curb rash on the silver face of my 826M rear wheel. I'll eventually powder coat, but for now the scrape drives me crazy!

Has anyone been successful finding a similar colour touch up paint for our wheels? Looking for a quick and easy fix in the short term.

Appreciate any help, thanks!

Aren't they machined? What color paint are you expecting to match them to?

They are… some sort of tinted grey I guess, lol

Im not sure if they have Yelp in Canada. I would check with a local wheel repair shop. They can repair wheels extremely well, and they dont usually charge an arm and a leg.

I’m doing some looking around for this too. I used a dremel with sanding wheel (180) , then sanded down, then polished with simple metal polish and noticed there is definitely a color they finish these wheels with and its not metal.
