I am not Jim, but hobby shops and the fingernail polish section of drugstores, etc. have many colors, some of which may match. Don't try to touch up all in one go. Layers, light sanding. Be happy with beausage. We live in Rivendell, remember. Use a pencil eraser to apply pressure to a little wad of steel wool and keep the abrasion to a tiny area. Twirl the abrasive. After touch up, you can even get and apply clear fingernail polish. Fear not. But leave no rust under paint.
