Touch-up paint for OEM rims ----

Has anyone found a good color match for the factory rims? I am talking about the medium grey metalic color. I have bought a couple of colors from the auto parts store that look close on the cap color but once on the rim the're not that close.
MB does not offer one. There are hundreds of off the self touch up colors --- one has to match well!!

Hi Jim, the wheels are palladium silver so you should be able to order a tube from your dealer.
