I don’t even see the gouge, what am I missing here.
I see what looks like dirt on the frame.

Should probably just grab some rust brown paint. Because that’s probably the color the frame will be soon enough

I would sand it a little to ensure all loose paint/primer is removed, then prime it and paint it. With that said, I think I have a case of OCD.
