The application of pearl paint is a major project.  It's a 3 step process:
1 Apply the basecoat color
2 Apply a mixture of the pearl mixed with clearcoat
3 Apply 1-2 coats of clear

If the can of touch up paint will do a reasonable job, the price sounds 
inexpensive.  A minimum quantity of the components needed for steps 1-3 is 
well over $100 - I know I resprayed the front & rear bumper valances on my 87 
last summer.
