How do I repair the scratched powdercoating on my chopper's frame?

+++

I recently scraped the bottom frame rails of my custom chopper, as I was attempting to load the low-slung motorcycle into my trailer. I know the frame is powdercoated, and totally disassembling the bike to re-powdercoat the frame is not feasible. How can I eliminate the scrapes without re-powdercoating?

It would surprise me if the manufacturer does not offer those little bottles of touchup paint. But if they don't, take it to a consumer-friendly powder coating shop; they will know exactly what to do. good luck.
