    Leave it. If it's just a light graze it probably won't affect the way the forks work. Just keep an eye it, make sure the forks don't start leaking any fluid.

    If it was a deep gouge, then you might have had a problem because it could dmage the seals/wipers.

    Friend of mine done this on his FOX rear shock,he uses a fine coat of clear nail varnish just to fill in the scratch.It was'nt leaking but this was just a preventive measure.He has to re-apply every so often,works like a charm.

    have a look in the MTB FAQs.
