Living in Chicago Rust is inevitable. Since Just purchased my 06 liberty sport I have found a few spots of body rust and chipped paint. Now according to Jeep my paint color is Atlantic Blue Pearl Coat (PBJ)
I went to local parts store just to get a rattle can but they dont seem to have exact match closest I can find is Dupli-Color Perfect Match BCC0409 - Touch Up Paint | O'Reilly Auto Parts

This seems dark I am looking for close since I am sure fading has occurred.
Any suggerstions or places to get a rattle can to match would be great

Call the dealer. I know my local mopar dealers I use have the touch up paint at least. Couldn't tell you if they actually have rattle cans though.

Here in the sticks of hicksville in Arkansas we have a PPG paint store where they can use OE paint code, then begin lightening/darkening until it's a near perfect match. Once they get the match they'll mix any quantity you want from a custom on-the-spot filled rattle can to 5 gallon pail. NOT a cheap service, but it's what you say you want.

I know you can usually find a match on amazon. I went to autozone and got a touch up pen with the little nail polish brush too. Works good wasnt using for rust though. Just little dings.

Not to mention a lot of places, if you take a paint chip in to them, it will get matched exactly. I've had that done before on my previous vehicle when I needed the rear bumper repaired. I should have done that when I touched up the front hood on the Libby, I have a slightly lighter spot where I used OEM touch up paint on it.
