I have a couple of small marks on the edges of my white 17" S wheels, which were caused by the careless tyre fitters when they changed the tyres.
Is there a touch up pen or something similar available from BMW?

The last time I asked at a couple of MINI dealers, they said they didn't do a touch up pen - mind you, this was about 18 months ago, so don't know if the situation has improved.

i normally go to Halfrauds and get a similar colour touch up pen and then just use it every so often! i havent curbed my new wheels touch wood!

Thanks. I'll give the BMW dealers a call at some point, if not I'll get a pure white touch up pen from Halfords.

if a touch up pen fails then the next port of call could be an alloy wheel refurb place - especially for kerbing damage (not sure how bad ure marks are) usually charge £45-£50 a corner
