Lots of us have used automotivetouchup to buy touchup paint (in pens, cans and spray). Check out post #4 in this thread:

Check out your local autobody supply. I bought some from mine and they put it in a spray can for me. They just need your paint code and then they will mix and put in the can for you. The only draw back is the price. 17 bucks per can here, but it matches nicely

I believe your GM parts dept. can get a spray can for you at $15 for a 5OZ. can. I checked with them on my SMM and that is what I was told.

I had checked before

I have a white car. They said they have my color in stock for about $15 per can but he also said it looks a little different because chevy uses a basecoat / clear coat and the spray can is all in one. Your color is probably the same.

Thanks

I will check with the dealership on Monday. Also, I had no idea that paint stores can load individual colors into a spray can! I will investigate this also. I'd really like to paint my bike SOM.
thanks again.

I'm not talking about Menards or Walmart. An autobody supply store could/should be able to do this for you.
