Default Silver Paint - which matches wheels ...

I need to touch-up some wheel dings. I have Wurth silver/clear spray cans but wanted to use Autovisuals' http://www.autovisuals.com/ Autosharp Pen. Problem is that there is no Wurth available in the pen and I'm unsure which P-car silver is closest to the wheel silver. The choices are Polar, Arctic, Crystal and GT.

The post from E55AMG shows GT Silver to be pretty close. Anyone know?

Not the same, only Wurths or equivalent (sold at carcareonline.com) matches AFAIK.

Just sharpen a dowel in a pencil sharpener, dip in a little paint pool, and add paint dot after dot until "hole" is filled. Works much better (though slower) than a big fat brush or pen.
