Well I done doood it .
Yep ,Scratched my receiver cover on my H001...not too bad , but just enough a touch up would do nicely.
Anyone have any recommendations or experience in this arena?
What matches the factory paint or what should I use to repaint it? (has to be in a rattle can , no spray equip)

Thank you & HAppy Shootin!

There are several touch up products for bluing on the market:

The receiver on a H001 isn't blued - it's semi-gloss black paint. Birchwood Casey makes a "paint pen" product that may work - I have one in flat black - maybe they also make one in gloss black...

I'm guessing that any black paint-in-a-spray would do the job. Or you could re-spray it any colour you like.

Looks good! ......
I had an idea come to me... Outboard motor paint. Should be tough and hard wearing. Looking into it.

I love your gun you painted looks super ............ I guessing bore cleaner wouldn't hurt it since it is engine paint .

Also, Black epoxy spray paint should do quite nicely. It’s made for use on appliances. I’ve had good results using it on various metal projects. I wonder if spray on undercoating would work.....

Didn't know that.

I gouged the receiver cover on my H001 about a week after I bought it when my screwdriver slipped. I emailed Henry and they sent me a new one.
