Default Rim scratched...

Hello all.

My wife ran over a curb and scratched the rim. Not to bad but it's scratched. Short of taking it to a body shop where they will charge an arm and a leg. do I just sand it and paint it?

if so, what type of sanding paper and what type of paint?

They are after market hellcat rims.

Thanks.
