Default Best Touch Up Paint/Method

Never had great results on any vehicle with the little bottles from dealerships. What works and what doesn't?

Yup...they never match. Best bet is to call your local paint/body shop, and see if they get you a small bottle of the exact paint color. I had some work on old C5 MY, and whatever paint was left over, the body shop gave me in a bottle, and I used that whenever I got small stone chips - no one could tell the difference at a distance and the color matched perfectly.
