Default bumper cover repair

Hi,
I got a scrape in the front bumper cover...mostly paint transfer but the surface of the bumper got scratched through the silver color, and the white below shows up pretty bright...what would be the best way for me to touch this up? Will touch-up paint work, or is there a vinyl repair product available in matched colors?
Thanks for any help you can offer.

Well, upon further review, my first impression (that the tapping of the wall in the parking lot was too minor to really cause even a scratch) was correct. I worked a bit harder at buffing it, with a bit of solvent, and it was all paint transfer from the wall. I waxed over it, and it looks like new again. So, all is well, except that I wasted folks' time with my post (sorry about that). Maybe I will invest in a clear bra to protect that bumper...
