Default TSW Gunmetal Touch Up

I've been scouring the web looking for insight into how to touch up my TSW Nurburgring wheels in Matte Gunmetal. The company doesn't respond (doesn't really have any email or phone presence other than an automated phone service that directs you to dealers). My dealer said he can't get any info on a Paint code and has tried.



I purchased about a dozen touch-up paints, played around mixing, etc. No luck. Anyone have any ideas on what I can do to try and touch up a scratch on the face of 2 wheels?

Find a place that sells paint that has a laser that can read exact paint color. I forget the name of it, but they basically will scratch off a tiny bit of paint, place it under the laser, and it will have a 99.9% exact reading of the paint color and supply a code. Theres a couple of places around here that have them.
