Found a good size scratch on my power slider button the other night. The black covering (paint, I think?) has been removed with this scratch. Is there a paint or something of the like that I can touch it up with? Or should I just get out the sharpie?

I actually busted out the sharpie on my HEMI badges a couple weeks ago. They had some of the black peeling off. They turned out as good as new.

Can't really tell it's been covered unless you're right up close to it. We'll see how it holds up. :)

How well does this keep the light from shining through? You should see mine. Not exactly perfect. Maybe I'll try that.

No problem :) I'm thinking if it doesn't work, I'll prolly have to go to some touch up paint or something like that.

LOL yep I got it, I don't use it that much either, unless someone farts in the truck LOL


Anyways, here's a pic with the lights on. You can still see it a bit, that spot to the right of the button. I might try to do another "coat" of sharpie and see how it does.
