    Anyone have a good recommendation for touching up bumpers and sliders. I have a few spots where the flying gravel from gravel roads has worn off the powder coating on my @CBI Offroad Fab sliders and rear bumper. Want to get them painted and sealed up before winter.

    Any idea what brand and gloss level of black spray paint will work the best? Looking for both durability and color match.

    Surprisingly a cheap can of satin black spray paint seems to be the best match for touching up the powdercoat.

    Thanks. Been supper happy with this bumper and sliders. A little trail scrape or two and the miles and miles of highspeed gravel roads (with no mud flaps) have just left a few spots that need some touching up.

    If it's a relatively small amount, just use a black paint pen, works great on bed scratches, too.
