Default black denim paint

Does anybody know of a touchup paint that will match the black denim paint?

I got a bottle of touch-up for mine at the local dealer. If it helps, part number is 98600BYM, two-pack (1/2oz each) of black denim touch-up.

Also, don't know why but bottle also says "Apply Denim Clear 98600CLR to achieve higher gloss ONLY if necessary." Guess this is the MoCo's statement to help oxygen thieves who thought it wise to buff the denim coat.

Just a thought. A buddy of mine had a chip in his denim tank. He took it to a local pin striper wizard. The pin striper painted an old school pin stripe over the chip and is disappeared.

Go to any John Deere tractor supply and ask for "Blitz Black" paint. You can get it in aerosol cans or mixable w/hardener for spray gun use. Painted everything on my bike with the rattle can with the exception of the factory tank and you can not tell the difference...dead ringer and spot on color match.
