Touch up of powder coated Parts

I have found that if they are textured black powder coat, Rustoleum black rubberized undercoat rattle can is a close match to the powder coat
 
I agree with the above that said spray paint. Just touch up the spots needed, wheel it, scratch it up and repeat.

Stupid question perhaps to this point ^^^. But when you all say "hit it with the rattle can," I get that you spray it and use semi-gloss, flat black and the like. But am curious to fill in a few things.

What brand paint? What type (exterior, auto, metal...)? Is this purchased at home depot or at a auto parts store? :thinking:

Like I said, might be obvious to some, but still curious as most will just say "rattle can it."
 
I use whatever I have around. Generally Rustoleum flat black that I purchased at some point in time at Home Depot or Lowes. I think I used some bedliner spray the last time I touched up my sliders. :thinking: IMHO it doesn't really matter, it's just going to get scrapped off again. I only do it to prevent surface rust from forming....or coming back after I have cleaned it off. :crazyeyes:
 
I need to do this as well, Are you guys taping off the grill and hood while spraying the front bumper or taping off the doors to paint the sliders?

I would think I would get overspray....Thoughts?

It depends on how much is being touched up, location of touch up, and your comfort level of doing the work. I generally do not tape things off but will use a piece of cardboard as a shield in some areas.
