Can This Be Repaired ( Elastomeric Bumper )

[700 AKN]

I'm just taking a shot in the dark and asking if there are any methods to touching up the paint on a Elastomeric Front Bumper.

I noticed this scrape on my car's front bumper on the weekend when I gave the car a cleaning.   It was the 1st time that I gave the car a wash after getting it back from the shop that removed & replaced my engine after a rebuild.   I'm hopeful that I can touch it up with some paint, but wondered if using some kind of formula to smooth it out.    Maybe a very fine grit sandpaper or acid ( just kidding ) or should I just get the bumper repainted as the only way to make it look like glass again.

It's not too deep of a cut but it's roughed up as you can see by the pictures.
Thanks for any help or idea's you may have.

I don't like being the barer of bad news, It looks like it will need to come off and be repaired and refinished.

Needs to be repaired and refinished.

All fixed!   Well, sort of?
I had a friend do a small repair on the bumper and from a distance it looks good.
I'll get the bumper re-painted maybe this winter.

Looks good, can't even see where it was.
What did he do to fix it?

That looks great. No need for a repaint unless the picture is hiding something.

easy fix no need to take off bumper.....a good painter can blend in new paint.......

That looks better.

Thanks for the positive feedback.

He put on some kind of resin to smooth it out and then used some paint from a spray can.
It was brushed on and is visible when looking directly at it.  Most people will not notice it unless you point it out to them.  The colour is a good match.

Still have not driven the car much this year after the engine rebuild.  I had the transmission serviced to seal all the leaks and now my power steering pump stopped working.   I'm hopeful it can be rebuilt, but if not I'll be looking for a another one if I can find one.  I can still drive it but I need the strength of "THOR" to turn the wheel.
