I recently acquired a nice SF light, in HA OD, which had a small nick in the bezel. I sanded it down smooth, but of course that left a bit of shiny silver instead of the OD finish. What, if anything, can be done to restore the OD color?

Thanks in advance for any advice.

If it really bothers you im sure you could find some paint that would match, testors makes hobby paint that's really good on metal. I've thought about doing it to some of my lights, but i enjoy the character.
