    Had a couple spills on the bike recently leaving 3 nasty paint scratches on my right ultegra shifter. its a new enough groupset so im not at the point where it doesnt bother me. anyone have any tips on covering up these scratches. a clubmate mentioned nail varnish for scratched frames bit i dont know if that would hold up to being manhandled constantly like a shifter.

    I had very light scoring on my 6800 shifter from it leaning against a wall and used a black sharpie to darken it. Worked a treat and hasn't worn off so far.

    not a bad idea. permanent marker in black would work alright.
