Badly kerbed 624 wheels

So i was reversing into an underground car park in peckham today, and was too busy looking out for any potential car jackers to notice a sticky out bit of kerb that someone had obviously dislodged from its rightful home. Consequence being a nice graze down one of my 20" 624 wheels. Having only had the car for eight months and this being the second time i have kerbed a wheel i wonder what made me buy these wheels with a lick of paint for a tyre.
My question is does anyone know how many times this type of wheel can be refurbished as it looks like it's probably gonna be an annual occurence to have these looking nice again.
Thanks in advance

If they are the black ones then you could possibly repair yourself with some matte black paint?

Thanks, Teaston, yep they are the black ones. Excuse my ignorance but can you buy wheel paint?

A totally gutting feeling to feel the pain of the alloy as it clips something that millimetre too close ... Completely spoils the day.
