I would avoid that. Sharpie markers are actually very dark purple. They're not black. They look black normally, but when you look it a most angles, it shines purple. Spray paints are usually somewhat lighter than you'd expect them to be, but that would be closer to purple. Some companies make fast drying paint pens too, you know. I used white to give my black pickguard a white outline, so I think you might be able to use that for the chips.
I know there are whole kits made specifically for this kind of thing that work pretty well, but I don't know any of them; someone will post one of them sooner or later.
