Oh weird, I haven't seen Infiniti give out a bottle in years. It's always felt tipped pens here. Well, either way hit up an auto store and grab a small jar of duplicolor clear. FWIW, you don't actually need the clear, it just helps blend the touchup.

Very true. I just used black in this example because at the time my car was black (and so was my sisters); I didn't want to do a "how to" with a customer car.

Incidentally both cars have been sold since I posted this thread 8 months ago.
