Touch up paint for Graco Lauren in White?

Hi All,

We recently purchased the Lauren crib in white. My husband put it together yesterday and when I returned home, I was dismayed to see that there were a few dings and scratches. If I had seen the flaws before he assembled it, I would have preferred to return the product, but since it is already assembled, I hate to make him disassemble and then reassemble a new one.   Has anyone ever used touch-up paint and if so, can you provide the brand & color that matched?

Thanks!

    I have an inquiry into the manufacturer.  I'll share whatever I find out.

    I've gotten no where with Graco or their manufacturer Lajobi (apparently, I'm not the only person having trouble getting a response: https://www.pissedconsumer.com/reviews-by-company/lajobi-industries/trying-to-order-parts-20140114470947.html).  So, I called Amazon and they are going to ship us another one.  We'll pick out the least damaged parts between the two and return the rest.   That doesn't help you with your paint question @lefriday, but I thought I would update the thread for anyone else that may be looking for info in the future.

    The replacement crib was equally damaged.   I've decided this crib is just crap.

    I have the Graco Lauren and it arrived in perfect shape, site-to-store Wal-Mart. Now, LO has chewed it to death, though so I might be in the market for touch up paint soon, too.
