IMO, touch up paints real purpose is to rust proof a damaged area with a color that doesnt contrast with the background. TRying to do a factory paint job in a wound & make it all look better is, of course, what every starry eyed owner of bent stuff Wants desperately. If you have high points with broken paint, then you can buff that off on the edge of the ridge. A few cheap emory boards from wherever,, that way, you can focus the sanding on the top edge of the peak & stay off of everything else. IF there is any rust started, at all, then Not stopping it is a bad idea. A little dab of Jasco ( get a qt for $8.00 / Kelly Moore, liquid, not gel). Whether you can see rust or not, Id do it. Cheap insurance. Wipe it on, leave it a coupla hours, wipe it off, do the Map Pencil thing,
