  • What are the best options for fixing/touching up these scratches on my beloved Vigorelli Alu top tube and down tube, considering covid and lockdown?

  • Paint looks pearlescent - touch up will look shite if you try to simply match the existing shade.

    Try asking in the paint thread but if I had to fix it I’d consider adding a ring around the tube in a complimentary colour to fix the big one in the top tube.

    Downtube blemish I’d ignore.

    Interesting. I’ll consider it, though the original paint scheme is nearly perfect imo.

    Probably find a nail varnish which is close, then a bit of careful rubbing and polishing. Trip to Boots?

    Will try that, need to go there anyway. Most likely won’t match it like Howard says, but it pains my heart to see it like this.

    Thanks all who replied. Will sort something professional out when it’s allowed again.
