Default Rock Chip...Need Paint Number

Has anyone who had rock chips tried touch up on the paint? Where can I get the paint color code? I have the Ultra White color.

You need two different bottles for UV. One for base coat and another for color. I ended up getting Dr Colorchip. Works much better.

I also use drpaintchip, color doesn't really match but it's decent for $60 solution.

No, I didn't get Lexus bottle at all since I knew it will come out as blob. Dr colorchip looks better overall because you can remove excess paint afterward.
