For my 230sl which is ROTMET 571, metallic red, I have used Automotive Touch Up Microfinish LLC 888-710-5192 in botlte touchup, paint stick and spray.  Color is pretty close

Results may vary. On my '90 Bronco I ordered touch up paint from the same vendor, one year apart, and they came out different enough to be noticeable. The other issue can be if your car was repainted at some point: how do you know they exactly matched the original color. So getting the original color mixed perfectly might still not match what's on the car today. For small chips it probably won't matter though.
