Here's a trick that I've found to work better than black markers for touching up scratches on a matte black painted surface. It does, however, require use of printmakers etching or lithography ink. You can find it in well stocked art supply stores. Dilute the ink to a viscous consistency with mineral spirits & apply with a small touch up brush appropriate to the width of the scratch. I found it matches the finish much better than marker, which is a good touch up for some anodized finishes. Will.
Darn it, I scratched my Roland Now what
For some stupid reason I was cleaning one of the shelves of my stero rack and a I accidently hit the top of the shelf with my Roland gear causing a nice scratch on the top plate. ( black ) Thanfully it is not to the metal but more of a good rub mark. This is ( was ) an expensive piece of equipment. Any ideas on how I could possibly remove this dreadful mark.
