Default Where to get touch up paint for the best match, etc..?

Best thread I could find was this one. Just wondering where most that have had to do this get theirīs from, brand?

Iīve got a bunch of chips to cover from stones and such on the front hood, need to get this taken care of before I start getting cancer in place of seeing steel.

I bought Motorcraft touch up paint from the Ford dealer. I haven't had to use it yet, but it does have the option of using it as a brush or a pen.
Since it's a Ford brand, it will match your color perfectly.

What color is your car?

Dupli-color touch up paint. They sell them at Walmart.
The paint is thick like nail polish.

Match, yes, but I'd like it to look like I didn't actually do anything. So far drcolorchip or duplicolor it seems.

Black. I'd have to look up the flavor/code.
