Forgot to take the disc lock off yesterday and so dropped bike on drive. Small grit marks on crasher bars which should tidy- anyone know what is the paint code and or colour for this? And where I can get a spray can of it? Thanks
 
I thought the OEM BMW crash bars are all electropolished stainless steel so they aren't painted/coated (I could be wrong) :nenau
What colour is your crash bars?

I have only seen these bikes with the stainless steel bar. If it is colored, the color would most likely match a frame color.
A search on the realoem.com for painted parts also reveal the paint code.
 
I know this is the Adventure but is this the same colour as yours? If this is the case, it's stainless steel and not painted.

Great advice- thanks

As suggested by Jverdoes, this is stainles steel.
Any scratch with ridges is flattened by a fine file, then you finish off with emery paper.

Thanks for the advice- fine wet and dry and natural oxidation you can't tell there were marks. Advice spot on. Bought a couple of Nippy Norman cylinder head protectors just in case I do something similar again.
