  1. I've just bought something a friend of mine suggested for touching up black metal items on the bike (note I haven't tried it yet as I'm waiting for it to arrive).

    He used to be an Armourer repairing guns and he used it on trigger guards and barrels, it's called Birchwood Casey Flat Black.

    You can either buy a pen (which I did) or a solution, be careful as one type is NOT suitable for Aluminium. You can get a flat black or a gloss black

  19. Tried it out and it’s pretty good, slightly bluer finish on my black anodising but better that a shiny mark
