Raise your bag a little. Or shoot some clear on it so it doesn't trust. ORRR, leave it alone and let the bag keep it clean.

Anybody that has DuPont,usually has a machine that can take a picture of the color and formulate it.
Some of the bike companies are releasing the code number for the paint.See if you have an automotive paint store close to you and give them a try.Oh...It's usually not a solid black on our bikes.There's usually a metallic in them of different colors on different years.My '86 had gold in it,my '87 had blue in it.

Doesn't hurt the paint.But yes take a part with you.
