Alloy wheels - paint colour

Deepjoy22:
Hi.  I've the 2016 Sport Nav with the 19" gunmetal wheel - so an outer silver paint and an inner spokes dark grey looking paint.

Has anyone ever discovered what paint colours are best for touching up nicks and scratches (both colours).

Thanks.

Anchorman:
They don’t usually publish that information.  A paint specialist might help.

BigAl:
You'd be better of going to a wheel refurbishment company such as https://www.thewheelspecialist.co.uk/. I used someone similar to repair damage to a wheel on my 2015 2.2d sport nav when the rim was damaged and the paint scratched. Cost more than just a touch up, obviously, but the repair was invisible once done.

I took out Alloy Wheels insurance on my new mota, just in case! ::)

FYI

I've got a wheel scratch insurance policy, and just had 2 small scuffs fixed.

Technician says the wheels are an awkward colour to match, but says the colour is BLUE,
 CHROME, with a SHADOW CHROME finish.
