Scratch in my rim ... now what?

I have the 20 inch midnight stock rims ... got a decent scratch, almost a gauge in it ... what's the fix if any?

Is it down to the metal? Do you really notice it?

You could put some primer on it if it is down to the metal, then get some touchup paint. I like the paint pens from www.paintscratch.com

They have midnight silver listed on there.

Anyhow, what I do with scratches, is to use the paint pens, leave it overnight, then follow up with the Quixx scratch remover the next day.

I've gotten real good results like that.
