Default Color Code

Does anyone know the color code for Metalic Pewter 01? Where's a good place to buy touchup paint? Lastly, is it worth touching up or does it end up standing out more? I have small scratches that annoy me but aren't that noticeable. Thanks in advance.

Chips touch up good, but not a scratch. Go to someone like Auto Zone, Pepboys, Kragen/Schucks etc. They should have a code book and supply of touch up bottles. Do it in the shade and not in the wind, drys too quick.
