John, I had the same issue with the same colour and found a touch up set, but because it is pearlescent paint is has 3 layers; base, then silver then candy red. By the time you get the silver dry it is too dark a base colour, for the candy red, so it really doesn't match very well at all (waste of nearly £40).

My chip wasn't too big, so I solved it using candy red nail varnish from Boots Chemists; essie code 508 is a very good match if the chip isn't too big, applied with a good quality brush, not the brush in the bottle.

Good luck Tim
