through some heavier use on my system, i've got some battle scars on my lower. any good touch up paints that will do the job instead of striping and repainting?

thanks in advance

Birchwood Casey alumiblack. I think that's how you spell it. Anyway I would leave it be its a tool. The touch up pin doesn't always match up exactly.

Chicks dig scars (honest scars, not driveway scars).  Leave them.

I'm getting some Testors Flat Black enamel paint and a flat black enamel pen. I got a stripped Spike's Tactical lower that I'm putting together and I put a couple marks on it when I was putting in the trigger guard roll pin. I'll let you know how it goes once I try it out.

+1 on Birchwood Casey Aluminum Black. Degrease the surface and heat it some with a propane torch. Put the Aluminum Black on while it is still hot and put some CLP or similar oil on it after it cools down. Looks good.
