I don't want blonde roots!

I've asked how to keep my red hair from fading, and those products definitely help, but I've returned to my old standby for touching up my roots: Schwarzkopf Igora toning mousse in Light Copper Brown (5-7). I've finally mastered the art of applying it evenly without staining my fingers. Only problem is, I'm out of the stuff now, and it appears to have been discontinued. What can I use in its place?
I would prefer that it be something I can apply without a huge production. The mousse was great because I could just comb it through my hair after showering, wait a few minutes, then rinse my hair and be done with it. The color was perfect, too. It blends in easily with the professional coloring.
But I can't find it anywhere offline or online! The Schwarzkopf site lists a foam that sounds like the same thing, but nobody ever has my color in stock. Is there another product that's similar? My stylist simply recommended I come in and have her gloss it for me, but I barely have time for my regular hair appointments as is.

Best answer: I used to use a similar product by Goldwell that I really liked - I believe it's called Colorance Soft Color (http://www.goldwell-northamerica.com/site/products/color/colorance/colorance-soft-color/). I colour my hair a level 8 copper, and used to use 7KG copper blonde back when I got my red professionally done. I use a box colour now, so I just do my own roots with the box, but I really loved that mousse when I used it.
Hope this helps!
