Where is the touch up located? Paint fades after 5 yrs. A touch up in the middle of a wall is hard, the paint has to be thinned by 15% and applied very thinly in a multitude of coats. The best way is to paint the entire section from a corner to a break. Sherwin Williams can make the color Hayseed in Qts. The paint on your walls is a contractors quality which basically is a primer. Any questions give me a call Len 352-205-8213
