black touch-up paint for window beams?

[earthmike]

Hi, I hope this hasn't already been answered somewhere under some bizarre search-string I didn't think of (if so please point me there)...

My 2000 Camry is Sailfin Blue (kind of metallic), but the vertical beams next to the windows are matte black. Try as I might to prevent scratches, some have appeared. Toyota says there is no touch-up paint for these window beams, and the stuff they sell is also metallic-like so it wouldn't really work.

I was wondering if anyone has a suggestion for a matte paint and clear-coat (Testors? Acrylic?) that would cover up the scratches. Or am I just going to have to trial-and-error this...

Thanks,
--Mike

perinant marker works for small scaches

There are some that go to the bare metal, so I'd like something that seals to prevent rust.

Marker and clear nail polish?

i'd just mask it all offand paint the whole thing over, all of them so they match

You could get it reapainted i got an estimate on that like 100 for all trim

Or get creative and cover with some vinyl

mask it off like oldman said and spray it flat black bumper and trim paint. you can get it at any auto parts store.
