Smile Urgent help required

First off apologies that this is not really the correct place but I am desperate for a quick response.

I have someone coming round to look at my RB5 later this week and all is looking great apart from the wheels that have a few kerbing marks on the surface (previous owner was probably Stevie Wonder..lol!)

Question I have is does anyone know if there is a touch up pen that will be a close match for these wheels so I can at least tidy them up a little.

You help will be greatly appreciated.

If the metal is gouged then you really need to get it done properly. Get in touch with your local mobile dent / scratch repairer. Mine re-finishes wheels for £50 a shot, rub down, fill, spray and laquer

I see your point and you are absolutely right, problem I have is that I have a dealer wanting to take a quick look at the car sometime this week (time TBA) so you see time and cost are factors.
I maybe should have explained too that these are not deep marks like you often get and also not ones that run round the rim, more like little nicks than anything, so would hide (barring close scrutiny obviously) with a neat touch in.

Just wondering out of the many many colours out there if there was one shade that was a close match.
Edited to say I have some suitable filler if need be as I got one of those Halfords alloy wheel repair kits but the colour itself if wrong.

*grovel mode on* Please help ,good Scooby folks
