John Deere blitz black paint is a perfect match if done right.

Let us know how that works out. I never had to use it on mine but I am going back to black denim next time around.

Well.......Finding John Deere blitz black is proving impossible at the local level.

Rust-Oleum has a farm implement black? Same or no?

My brother had a black car some years ago and bought some genuine factory touch-up. It looked dark blue until it dried - not all blacks are what they may seem to be! Have you tried a local auto scratch specialist? I don't know if they do bikes, but paint is paint.

They sell touch up paint at the dealer. Same paint you have on there now.

Yeah, I got frustrated looking for John Deere paint. Stopped by the dealer. Tiniest bottle you've ever seen....$30.00.

I'd rather experiment with a rattled can. Being it's the front fender. I'd like to try to do a partial paint vs a complete. I'll remove & spray the whole fender if needed.

I've used flat black on other things. Blends amazingly well

I'm waiting to see if others have ideas B4 I breakdown and order from the internet.

I painted my front fender and lower fairings with the John Deer paint, nobody can tell the difference! Worth the couple day wait if you have to order it online.
