matte black touch up paint
 

any recommendations on a good matte black touch up paint? my new bianchi axis has lotsa matte black and already a couple scratches...

You'd think it'd be simple, wouldn't you? But black (and white) are about the hardest colors to match; throw in various degrees of semi-gloss, and you've got a real party. It'd probably be easiest to completely repaint all the matte black components to insure they match.

If you're matte black parts are apt to get rough treatment, something like Rustoleum is probably best. Heck, maybe even trunk paint...

Another trick is to use black finger nail nail polish with a clear nail hardner over that. It's cheap and just as effective as touch up paint.
