Re: Medium Blue or Dark Blue?

If you are wanting to do touchups here is the route I would suggest. Clean the current paint really well and take the truck to a automotive paint store that has a digital gun for paint matching. With one pull of the trigger they can get a paint match to the current paint on the truck. From there you can have them mix up a quart or they can actually put it in a spray can for you that has a bladder with hardener. Here in Idaho it cost about $20 for a 2K can of matched paint. I have always had at least a quart mixed up and matched with the digital gun. Then they pour 4oz off the matched paint from the quart to make a spray can. Now you have 28oz left in the quart and a spray can to use.

Here is a picture of the quart of paint I just had done that way and the 2K spray can ready to go. As you can see in the spray can there is also a red button inside the cap. You take the red button and put it on the bottom of the can and press, this activates the bladder that has hardener in it. Now you have a spray can that is usable up to 24 hours, after that the can becomes unusable and hardens in the spray can.
