Touch-up Paint

Got a new 2017 Volt two weeks ago and already dinged the door :( ... I would like to get some touch up paint to make sure the spot where the paint chipped doesn't end up rusting. Should I get the official GM touch-up paint? If so, is it a spay can, a bottle with brush, or maybe a pen? How would I find the GM part number? The color of my Volt is Silver Ice Metallic.

Or should I go with a third party paint? If so, can anyone recommend a good source that ships to Canada? Anyone know if this paint is available as a touch-up pen? A pen seems like the easiest to use on a small chip, although I might be wrong. Never had to do anything like this before on a car.

Thanks,
Harry

I used the paintref site above recommended by jeff_h along with the Volt ordering guide:

To purchase the following for $22 last year:

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01GSRUQQQ/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o06_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1

It is now $15 and qualifies for free Amazon shipping. It matches okay but lacks the metallic sparkle of the OEM paint job. Better than getting rust, though.
