Subject:touch up paint

Hello list!
I'm losing my mind in my old age, but I know I already have this
information somewhere. I remember writing it down and I have searched
the dart board where I keep my AutoZone warrantees, but I don't see it.
How do I identify the color of my van, other than brown? Why can't I
even remember where the paint code is located? I have eliminated all
the rust and want to give it a semi-permanent temporary type durable
finish to protect my work until I can afford to have a friend of mine
finish the prep work professionally and paint it for real. Any
suggestions for where I should go to find the color in a spray can, or
should I have an automotive paint store mix a quart (pricey) and spray
it with my cheap spray-gun? Have a great weekend.
