Touch up paint

Does anyone know of a good place to get quality touch up paint. I just don't want to try a place that isn't quite matched to factory colors.

Also, I checked one place and they have 3 kinds: aerosol, pen, and bottle. Are any better than another?

I got some from my dealer, I just gave them my vin # and they ordered me some. Only took 2 days to get it. Think it was like $12 and came in a small bottle that had a ball point pen type applicator that worked great for fine scratches and if you unscrew the top there was a small paint brush that worked for larger scratches. I was worried about the color matching my metallic blue but it came out better than I expected.

Walmart even sells the stuff. Just match the paint code from your door jam to the code on the bottle. I did it with my Expy (black) and my Mustang (metallic green) and my F-150 (white). All looked good and matched perfectly.

eBay has it also, but isn't any real savings

AutoZone had my Tuxedo Black, but I'm not sure about the sparkles in it... only used it sparingly where a mud flap decided to come loose and scrape paint inside.
