Local to Portland or anywhere in Oregon?

You could get a better response to this in the US Western Region forum.

Sorry, not off the top of my head.

I take it you have tried the dealership and they fail?

I have read several posts in the past having moderate success with Dr Colorchip.
I recall a few failures in the conversations, but the majority seemed pleased.

Lets hope others here will offer more solid advice....Sorry...

I turned up a list of body and paint shops in Portland and checked their websites. None of them offer to supply touch up paint.

This led to several car and motor cycle forums where members had exactly the same problem trying to find a local City or State source for touch up paint.

The US is a mystifying country. You can buy a gun just about anywhere but auto paint is considered so dangerous that only professionals are allowed to get their hands on it!

It's looking like the easiest and quickest solutions for you will be to use one of the few suppliers who deal by mail order.

Dr Colorchip as Vince suggested. Here is one I turned up:

Jaguar Touch Up Paint | Color, Code, and Directions for Jaguar

Based in NV but ship to anywhere in the US.
