Discontinued paint

i went to get some touch-up paint today to cover the previous owners actions, and i found out it was no longer being made. the door tag had MX but nothing else for paint. M means metallic finish and X means its nolonger being made. is there a way for me to get it for cheap or would i be better off waiting till i got the money and get it painted?
Thx
Tim

I'm not sure what you have up there for paint shops, but down here I buy from the gladwin paint co.
Any good automotive paint co. should be able to mix you a quart of paint then you do what you want with it. But it might cost you.
Good luck

BadDriver, your MX paint code is "Dark Shadow Blue Metallic". You can get it anywhere. Try some place like Pep Boys, if you only need a small amount. Like RoadKill says, an auto paint store can mix you up a quart.

That's a good looking color, IMHO.
