Factory code for magnetic is J7. Thats also the code on the touch up pen sold at dealer

The base coat paint is the same . J7. Its the clear coat that gives the semi gloss appearance. Dont think that ford sells that flat clear coat but i know duplicolor has some

Np. I would recommend not using that clear in the pen because its high gloss. Depending on the size of the repair you may do better just using the base color. If that shows to be too shiny then i would look to auto parts store for a matte or semigloss clear.
