Default Scratch Fix?

My new to me Night Train has a scratch on the head just below the Tank, any quick fix ideas for a scratch on the black textured paint?

You can buy Harley wrinkle black in a spray can. Spray it in cap and use an artist brush to touch up. It will look like crap when you first do it ...but it will blend in somewhat as the heat dulls out the paint...will make it less noticeable. Then when winter rolls around, pull it off and have it re-powdercoated.
