Removing scratches question
I was just wondering the best way to touch up a scratched frame, I recently had my '06 rocky fusion put into the trunk of a car with another bike (not my idea) and when i took it out later on at night I noticed 3 fairly large scratches on my frame. 2 of them are pretty large but theres one that looks like someone keyed my bike with a good amount of force, when I rub my finger over it I can feel the roughness.
How could I get this fixed so its not noticeable?? Thanks. |

Look like crap? Maybe the female kind should start to use automotive paint on their nails? Your partner must use some nasty nail polishes!

Re: Removing scratches question
Maybe the manufacturer of the frame sells little bottles of touch-up paint or can direct you to a supplier.
