I searched in their books they have in automotive stores but never find the color for Rio Red (E8). I would like to touch up some chips in my paint. Does any other company make touch up paint for that color? Thanks.

I've never bought rio red, but I have bought my canary yellow touchup paint from www.automotivetouchup.com and it worked just fine for me.

This place claims their paint is guaranteed to match. However, I haven't bought from them yet. You can get pens, aerosol cans, touch up bottles or buy it by the gallon .

EDIT:Hmm, they list E8 as Vermillion Tricoat??? Oh well, maybe they can help you out anyway.

I got mine at Ford, which lists E8 as Vermillion, which is a newer color name for Rio Red.
