Iridium Silver Touch up paint

I got clipped pretty good in a parking garage last week and the bumper is scuffed. Is iridium silver tough to touch up? I was thinking about getting one of those mini air guns to give it a go, or the Dr Color Chip, which I have used in the past pretty successfully.

Any other suggestions?

Exact same thing happened to my right rear bumper a couple of months ago. Nothing broken, just a 6x8" scuff on the corner of the bumper. I don't care to have the local body shop screw up the repair, so when the weather gets warm again I'll do a spot repair using one of the many sources of primer/paint online. They claim to have the ability to mix exact match paint in aerosol cans. My ML is the same color as yours.
Sand, level, prime, paint, clearcoat.
