Default Is NBM available in a spray can anywhere?

I'd like to do a little detail painting on my car and I'd like to get it in NBM, but as far as I know, I can't get it in an aftermarket spray can. So if anyone knows otherwise, let me know!

Duplicolor had a close match when i was painting stuff a few years ago but check out this company:

I'm getting a can of the same orange I have on the front of my car.

I'm pretty sure you can get it from the dealer... I did awhile ago.

I went to an automotive paint supply store and had them mix an exact match for my NBM and put it in a spray can. It was a little pricey, like $14 a can.

I picked up a few spray cans a few years ago at Walmart of all places. It is Duplicolor GM505 if you can find it.

Get one custom mixed from an autobody supply shop and get them to mix it into a spray can. I do this all the time and matches are perfect. Just give em the paint code.

Just go to your local GM dealer with your paint code. Small spray cans are $12

GM dealer, I believe it's a 5oz spray can, 12371320.
Special order tho, so you'll have to wait for delivery.

I don't remember if I used high temp color, but I did use high temp clear and it has held up good except for when chipped from changing wheels
