If you're looking to fix minor scratches and road rash, I highly recommend Dr. Colorchip (www.drcolorchip.com). I have an 07 in Black Sapphire Pearl and you can't tell it's ever been scratched or pitted. If it's something more, you're probably stuck with the Lexus touch up paint from your dealer.

You'll never find the exact match since your car is 4 years old, and so is the paint, and the touch up you're getting is brand new. The best bet is go with the factory paint from the dealer. Otherwise, you can go to a body shop, have them blend you something exactly for you. This will ensure exact matching as they're going by your CURRENT paint color, rather than the paint color that was on your car when new. Years of UV exposure, will change the color of paint slightly.

You really don't use a lot. In fact, if you use too much, it's a pain to get off (or at least you use more solvent). Don't do too many at a time, or you'll forget where they are. I find one on the car a day after I touched up and boy, it took a lot of elbow grease to get it off.
