Default Touch up paint in a spray can

I called the dealer to ask for "touch up paint in a spray can." They said they don't carry it. Is it true? Or did he misunderstood me because I use the work "touch up."

I'm looking for the exact OEM paint and don't want to try a match it.

TIA

It has been my experience that touch up paint comes in a small tube with a brush type application, witch I find easier to use to touch up nicks and scratches. Just fill it in, let it dry, wipe with a thinner and continue to do that until it is level with the rest of the paint. To each his own but that is how I do it.

Correct. But what I want to do is paint my side black mirrors body color. Again, I can try match, but you know how that may go. So it's not really touch up. I just need spray can OEM paint.

Just buy it from http://www.paintscratch.com the only thing of "factory" paint you will be able to buy is a touch up pen, or tube of touch up.
