Hello,

Ive got a set of pikes that need a spot of touching up due to cable rub etc

Any recommendations on best paint to use?

Cheers Graeme

any car touch up paint if it's spots and chips, a spray if its a bigger patch and you want to be tidy and can be bothered to mask stuff off.

Or clear lacquer for rat-look.

If they are matt black finish then the Hycote paint pens are good - pro tip, don't use the brush in the lid - put a bit of the paint on something to work as a pallette and use something to carefully wipe the paint on. It's less likely to blob that way

A little piece of handlebar tape works well for this as they have a feathered edge
