My mate and me were working on the bike and the drill slipped.... Is there anyway of 'touching up' powercoat?

some people have used nail varnish. Unless you get a better suggestion it might be better than nothing.

Humbrol enamel paint is quite good, failing that smoothrite!

Pretty much what every one else said, but i would go with either smooth right or engine enamel. Both oil resistant and a reasonable gloss finish, though pretty much any touch up will sink and may need a couple of coats, but make sure each coat is dry before applying the next or you may end up with a reaction.

Thanks all for the options. I've also checked the online mellow pages and theirs a powercoat place in the next village I might pop over and see what they say as well, failing that smoothrite will prob be a option.
