One alloy wheel in need of TLC

[scala]

One lapse in concentration when parking alongside a curb has left my back passenger side rim a little worse for wear. I could have cried when I realised my mistake.

What are my chances of touching this up? A quick reconnaissance trip to Halfrauds revealed specialised alloy wheel touch-up sprays, but are these any good? Will I need to apply a primer first? What are my chances of colour matching it?

Guess I only get one attempt to make it look spot on. Perhaps I shouldn't bother in case I maker it look worse?

Too many questions for a Monday I know, but any sensible advice appreciated.

Best of luck with that one, I think I would try a tube of Solvol Autosol and if that didnt work I would look for a replacement.

The noise of a perfect wheel scraping on kerb can make grown men cry!!
