Default Touch up paint

All,

Seems I am having some difficulty finding a small jar with brush-in-cap of touch up paint.
MY2000 Carrera, Ocean blue, paint code L3AZ.
Any suggestions?

Tia

My family is from Florida, but I promise I didn't borrow it.

Seriously, I've used this company and their paints are a really good match.

What I use professionally is a 00 liner brush from a hobby store, natural fiber is better for auto paint. Be sure to reduce/thin down to insure proper flow. If you use the paint from the dealer parts counter, remember it is enamel , and use the correct reducer.

Suncoast Porsche Parts (http://www.suncoastparts.com/SFNT.html) used to sell factory touch-up paint kits online. I have one for my '02 Cab, seal grey, perfect match. Email them (Ric Knabb runs the online parts sales end of the business) and see if they can hook you up.

For many people - kind of overpriced from Suncoast. $26+$12.xx shipping. I called my local dealer (not cheap), and the touch-up paint is $21.48 for my 2003 C4. I would shop around 1st.

I use a company called Automotive Touchup. They mix the paint for you by the code. Have used them for years with great match and service.
