...if you can get the touch up spots matched up somewhat to your satisfaction, you can spray the entire frame and fork with Spraymax 2K Clear Glamour (after treating it internally with some oil or other). I have done this now with to bikes I like, ahta had reasonably good paint and decals remaining when I got them. It's a 2 part hardened paint, similar to Imron, but without the branding fame. My results with it have been good to very good.
