Hi all

Does anyone know if there is a Honda paint for touching up alloy wheels please?

In a word 'no'.

Trying to find a colour that matches exactly is not gonna be easy.

I'm guessing the wheel is damaged due to kerbing etc; I would either get it repaired professionally or look for a cheap one on ebay.

Hi Marnie,

Try looking for spray paint color bright silver. You might need body filler and sandpaper too if the curb hit is significant. My mags got some rust from the center and I used turco to remove them then appiled some body filler, sand them then apply spray paint a little at a time. Not noticable from afar but if you look closely you can still see the rust marks from the side of the center caps.

Thanks, it wasn't me, honest! Just a little bit of scuffing. I've smoothed it off with some Emery and it's hardly noticeable but would probably be better with a bit of paint.
