Black rim repair

I recently picked up a screw in a tire and needed to get it repaired. I guess it needed to be rebalanced since the wheel weight was removed and another attached.


Whatever tool they use to remove wheel weights ended up gouging out a chip on the black finish on the rim leaving a whitish scar.


Any idea what to use to repair this? Best way to go about repairing it?


Thanks.

They do sell touch up paint and spray paint for wheels. Not sure if you will find an exact match but worth a shot.

Touch up paint. It won't be perfect, but it'll do.
