    Have a 2013 Taco in "Spruce Mica," code: 6V4. Want to buy a touchup paint. The small 1/2 ounce that comes with pen and brush.

    By experience, no matter what color ypu have, which is better, OEM Toyota or Duplicolor?

    The thing is, apparently OEM just have the paint and Duplicolor does come with a clearcoat sponge. I really doesn't like Duplicolor...

    Looks like Duplicolor doesn't have the 6V4 Spruce Mica.

    I've had good luck with automotivetouchup.com, DBA Microfinish LLC. I've used both the small touchup kits and spray cans.
