Touch up paint for wheels?
I hit a curb and got a few very slight scratches on the very outer end of one spoke on one of my wheels. In fact, I have to look hard to see them, but I know where they are, so I see them.
2010 E 350 with the "standard" alloy wheels.
Anybody know of a "touch up" paint that can be applied?
Dealer has a "paint guy" who comes in periodically with his trailer full of paint and equipment to do touch-ups on cars, etc. He could probably do it when I get my "B" service done, but not sure worth what he will charge.
Thanks.

If you have to look hard to see the damage, a "touch-up" job is only going to exacerbate the problem. Go for a complete refinish ($100-$150) or let it ride.

Thanks for info. "let it ride" may be ultimate solution. Probably obsessing because it is first ''ding" of any kind. However, do want to check out options. Next one may be worse.
