      In car touch up kits, they sometimes include a little tool that has a knurled ball on the end of it for cleaning out the chip. I'll bet this would work well for the larger areas.

        My first thought was the same stuff they use to color names on a bowling ball, i believe its a waxy substance that is used to fill in the grooves, but it could be another option for a two tone look or a solid color.

        now only if i knew what those things were called
        will you post before and after pics as well???

          Impressive! Looks like i'll have to give this a try as well. Or maybe I can mix white-out, toothpaste, and crayon together and see what happens

            Started with a dental pick then decided to give it a try with a 1/16 Allen key, which ended up making things MUCH easier. I scraped off the oxidation with one of the flat sides of the Allen key and it was the perfect width.
