Default Touch-up paint!

I have a darker red ( Not maroon) Eddie bauer edition F150. The previous had gotten the truck keyed down the side, and I am lookin for like a touch up pen or spray or something to fix this. I understand scratches don't matter and it's a truck let it do what it suppose to, but I want to protect as much of the resale value as I can for when I sell it to upgrade in a couple of years.

Have you tried waxing the truck? That alone will sometimes reduce the visual impact of a scratch. Perhaps post some pictures of the part that got keyed. Unless your paint is already really bad, a botched pain touch-up or paint job could do more to hurt than to help the resale value.
