Just get the paint code, go to Autobarn or any local smash repair shop and they can mix it for you.. pretty cheap too!

The paint code of Milano Red is R81 if you were wondering.

If you look in the engine bay you should be able to find the paint code somewhere

Door jams are more prominent and easier to access.

Hey guys

I've also got a milano red dc2r and also a couple of scratches, i managed to get the touch up paint in the nail polish but its so hard to apply it on without it looking worse, any tips on applying on or know any places that can do it?

Touch up paint is used for exactly that, touch ups.
Its to make slight imperfections, scratches, slight dings the same color as the rest of the car.

For areas which actually require a long "brush stroke", you're probably better off getting it resprayed.

SuperCheapAuto does sell Milano Red i work at a store in WA lol,
Its in a spray can, but inside the small spray can it has a tiny brush for fine spots.
Also the colour code is located usually in driver side apparently, but in my MR ITR
its actually on my passengers side, the 2 stickers are interior code BLACK and exterior which had R-81. Also you can find the code on your Vin number (11th digit) but the colour won't be accurate, it only gives a guide of what your main colour is but not the variant colour it could be.
