Default Help Out a C3 Guy

My car is painted torch red which was offered from 93 up. I need to find a spray can for some touch up. Does anyone know where to get one and which paint code to ask for? I know GM dealers don't have aerosol. Thanks.

??? - i bought a couple of 6 or 8 oz spray cans of navy blue metallic from my local chevy dealer for my c5. in fact, a friend of mine bought torch red spray from the same dealer. are you sure about your statement, or is that what they (parts dealer) told you? have your chevy parts guy look it up in the book - bet it's there -
