Looking for Auto Parts Store That Can Order ACDelco Graystone Metallic Touch-Up Paint...

I admit it has been quite a few years, but I was able to order paint for a 1976 Buick Electra from NAPA. I gave them the color code and they were able to get the paint. It was the Martin Senour paint (NAPA's brand) made by Sherwin-Williams, but it was a perfect match. I think I waited 2 days for delivery from a regional distribution center.
Good Luck!

Amazon has the spray cans.

Some Advance Auto store mix paint and even put it in aerosol cans. I just ordered and received my touch up paint from TouchUpDirect using the paint code on the production plate. Its a 2 stage system with prime, base and clear, which is the correct way to touch up and get good color match.
I saw that yesterday, Sir. Thanks for that though. If my memory is correct, if ordered today, it would take 30 or more days to be delivered via Amazon Prime. Therefore, I'm looking for something a bit faster.
I'll have to see if there's an Advance store nearby.
Wow, I was wondering why you hadn't done that... Now I know. I ordered an Item with a long wait like that, 30 went by, 45, and then they cancelled it.
I just saw you're in Alaska... How much more difficult or how much higher are the parts up there vs the lower 48?
Oh I didn't see whre you were. My order said up to 14 days I got it in 5, but Im in Texas.
Another thing you might try is to go to a local body shop and see if they are willing to mix a small amount for you using the paint code. Its a long shot but it could work.
I send lots of people to body shops, or the body supply place in town that want touch up spray paint. Ford and Mazda only offer the brush/pen versions.

I had to replace the broken door handle assembly on the Legend. The used replacement was black.
Simple base-coat/clear coat. Matched up perfectly. Too bad the rest of the paint is fubar. FYI, I've been told by more than one body shop that Honda clear coat is very thin.

GM dealership?
It's bad. Most everything has to be shipped to Alaska from the lower-48; in terms of finished products, very little in loaded onto container ships returning south. Therefore, most everything has that high shipping surcharge tacked onto goods sold here. The Port of Anchorage is a very busy place.
Because of the empty containers going south, I do know that our state's recyclables have a free ride to the Seattle area. The shipping companies take them as a tax write-off.
Decent used pickup trucks start at $55,000 and go up from there. Most are running $60K or more. Milk runs around $4 to $5 a gallon. 87 octane gas is running $5.09 in my town.
It's not good. Hope that answers your question...

I got some for my kids 1997 K1500 from Amazon. I gave them the paint code the mixed up a can and some touch up. Matched perfectly. The paint, touch up tube, and clear was 60 dollars shipped.
Glad to hear you got it sorted! That's the exact same color as my GMC Envoy. In case it helps in the future, I ordered mine from Paint Scratch and it was a perfect match.
I agree -they are awesome and the paint is good.
