Curb rash on your black wheels?

Curb rash on your black wheels?
Here's a tip.
Krylon makes this product/device that works splendidly well to paint over a light curbing that happens from time to time.
The pen comes in both gloss and flat black and works and blends perfectly. Gloss of course is the right one for all our oem black wheels. You really have to get up close to see the touch up. eBay $8.
The brush is I guess what you'd call a "gravity dabber" that you press in to feed the paint like osmosis into the hard wick, which is light years easier than a brush. I leave a pen in my glove just for that moment of hearing that dreaded grinding noise we all know.
Try it.

I think it was yours I saw that gave me some inspiration to have mine done. I wasn't positive and too lazy to search.

Makes it unique which I like. I do like the diffuser that color and it's actually ok to keep clean.

Bravo.
As I'm sure you can attest, that little strip of color does wonders, especially for a white car.
When I got my car back from the shop and saw the rear for the first time, I was like "holy ****!", what a fat ***. It really transforms the rear from a sports car to an exotic car in an inexplicable way. In my case it also "frames" the red tips creating a special look. I personally think the guy who put together that car had a talent. Too be able to foresee what the touch would do before anyone had done it puts him in a space like the cartoon designers who have the *eye*. He "saw" it without having seen it if you catch my drift.
I just love it and thanks for the inspiration.

I think Home Depot has it if you just wanna pick one up but I recall they have only one flavor, didn't remember if it was the flat or gloss so be sure to read the label because they both have the same black cap.
