Default Hard top touch up?

Is there touch up paint available for black hard tops? Got some touching up to do already on the small pieces.

I just use nail polish. Cheap, easy, and it works.

Default Use a Sharpie permenant marker

If your top is black like most of us and the scratch is small (white showing) you can color the white with a Sharpie permenant marker pen, it works like magic, matches the color and you can be very exact in touching up.
