If you have a carquest in the area, they will mix it for you and put it in a bottle or spray can, or both.

Just take them your paint code.

Default color chip

I would use Dr Color Chip if it is just touching up rock chips. I use it on both my cars and a truck, great stuff. Best I have seen for fixing small chips. Search Dr Color Chip on You Tube and you can see different folks using it.

GM Dealers can get it for you and the price isn't too bad.
