Touch-up Paint Inquiry

I have a 1991 Turquoise Metallic Vette; I'd have to look up the actual paint code on the RPO sticker under the armrest lid, however, are there any vendors that make touch-up paint for the older colors? Other than having a paint shop mix up a large batch, does anyone know of any sources to buy just a very small quantity of this paint color for minor touch-ups?

Thanks, Chris.

Try www.automotivetouchup.com

I got my 95 touch up from them. real nice match. I think they can do the earlier years too... worth a shot. You give them the year, model and color codes.....

Is it 91 Corvette Turquoise metallic WA 9543, 42 ?

A Chevy dealer may also have it.

I actually found touch-up paint for my Quasar-blue at Wal-Mart.

I just received a bottle of Black Rose Metallic for my car today that I had ordered through Corvette Central.

Thanks for all the help; I should have checked the easy stuff first; I just ordered from Mid-America; $6.99 for the bottle, and $7.99 for the shipping; next time I'm at the dealer, I'll check just for my info in the future.....
