Default Any tip on fixing scratched rims

I was driving the other night and the guy in front of me stops suddenly to make a left hand turn, so I had to swerve to get around him and CLANG, my right front stock rim hit the curb. There are two decent size gouges in it now. I don't want these to rust and would like to minimize the visibility of the gouges. Any products out there for this?
Buying new rims right now is out of the question, so I have to make do with what i have. Thanks guys.

Default wheel repair

I used a die grinder and a fine polishing stone to smooth out scapes then used wheel touch-up paint GM Part number 12346497. It is a good match. If you do a search, there is also a site thread that does a bondo repair.
