I had a deep scratch and gouge on one of my wheels. I lightly sanded with 100 grit, filled the deep gouge and scratches with JB Weld MarineWeld two-part epoxy. Waited an hour, sanded with 220 grit, cleaned and sprayed with RustOleum paint that matches perfectly. I did repairs on two wheels in 2hrs total. They look perfect. Total cost: $16.

What color did you get to match it perfectly?

I've never scratched my wheels until the Tesla. Thankfully I had gotten plastic covers on day one, so invest the hundred bucks if you care or while you get used to the car. The size, protruding, and color really doesn't help. After the scrape I checked other Teslas and every single one had scrapes, including cars with dealer plates, and most had lots of scrapes all over.

Would like to use an airbrush instead. Is the paint you use an enamel or acrylic paint?

It’s oil based paint.
