Matching paint on a 418-8

Recommended Posts

So I want to do touch up (spray) on my lower left side panel.  What would be the best paint to use to get a close match?   My tractor is of course a 1987.  The area is maybe 3 inches by about 6 inches and the paint is totally gone.  Thanks

Find an auto parts store that makes paint. See if they have a spectrophotometer. Take a good panel off and have them shoot it with the meter and they will come up with a formula to put in a spray can. Your paint has faded over the years and no off the shelf paint will match exactly.
