Help me fix road rash please!

[3Banger]

Can anyone suggest a way to lessen the uglyness of road rash to the black side engine covers of my triple?

I've tried a brown paper bag but it blew off....

I had a 'whoopsy' on the on the Dessert Road on Saturday morning and was pretty lucky that the damage done was minor but the side covers have some deep scratches in the black finish. I need to do some thing before Mum see's it!

You'll need something that can handle the high temperature of the engine.

You could take it to a painter and see if they could touch it up with something.

Or if you need to hide it soon as you could always colour in the scratches with a black marker :)

VHT paint from Repco is great for engine casings, you can probably use some liquid metal epoxy to fill the big chunks.
