Duron Plastic kote (house trim paint)

Looking to touch up the trim around the doors. Original paint was duron plastic kote in white. Used to be sold at Sherwin Williams, but apparently they don’t carry it anymore. Sherwin Williams “manager” did not have a suggestion for an equivalent. I don’t mind painting 1/4 of a door frame, but don’t want to repaint the whole frame if I don’t have to.

Is there a question in here somewhere?

What can be used to touch up said paint?

Probably best to do the whole thing again

Even if they had the exact same product and color, your door frame has faded slightly. 0 chance it'd be a perfect match.

Don't be trashy, paint the whole frame. Use Snapdry.

Well tough titty snowflake.
Repaint it all unless you don't care what it looks like and if you don't what it looks like then don't paint it at all

The paint will not match what's already there and will look like crap. The only hope to get a close match is to bring a good size chip to the paint store so they can color match it and hope for the best.
If it were me, I'd just repaint the whole frame. It's not that hard to begin with as it's only the frame.

Yeah, good quality paint is not cheap any more. I painted the entire exterior of my house 18 months ago and the paint and related materials ran me over $1200.
My house is a very large wooden 2 story with exposed overhang, 31 wood sash windows with all the upper floor windows having functioning wooden shutters, 2 large porches and 6 exterior doors. Between paint, caulk, putty, glazing for the windows, etc. it became one hell of a sweat equity project. I know I save at least $20K or more doing it myself.

You can get Resilience or Snap Dry in quarts. Either one is fine.
