Default Touchup paint-Dupicolor no code

my 94 Black Rose has some nicks & scratches I want to touchup. Duplicolor doesn't list the code on it's web site. Any ideas on where I can get the paint in the handy little pen applicators like Duplicolor has? Thanks, AL

Any good paint shop can duplicate the color and put it in a can and spray can. I did it for my 40th Ruby Red. There were 4 different part numbers for my paint alone. And when I had it repainted I had very little paint from the painter, and it dried up. So, I went to a paint shop, they put some weird thing on the paint to "read it" and voila, a can of paint and a spray can of the paint.

I got some black rose from Corvette Central about 2 years ago. The match was good.

Thanks guys. The PaintScratch.com site has the pen style applicator I was looking for. I just don't think my hands are steady enough to use a brush on some of the thin scratches.

I got a small bottle of Black Rose Metallic paint and touch up pen from Mid America. It works well for small nicks.
