Paint question for Scottwax

[22velocity]

I was wondering, how do you manage to keep up with touch up paint for all of the cars you do ? I am retired and have been doing several of my friends cars and the biggest headache seems to be not having the right touch-up paint to finish their cars. Thanks for any suggestions.

If a customer requests touching up, I ask them if they already have the proper touchup paint, if not, I swing by the dealer and pick some up. I may get asked 5-6 times a year to do touch up work, so it isn't worth carrying any touch up inventory.
