Painted my tractor today

I painted my Cub tractor this morning and I did a slow boil all day. Everything looked good so I went into the house and went back out and the tractor had changed to a pale pink color. After a few choice words I went back into the house and made a phone call and was told to bring the can back for a refund. I looked at before we left and the wife was with me and she started laughing as it had changed to a reddish purple color. When I got back from the store it had changed to the red that it was suppose to be so I guess tomorrow I will go back to the store and give them the money back. I have never seen this before. It was Rust Oleum paint
 
You are correct about the cheap stuff such as the 30's alkyd enamel that he used. Quality paint does not change color, particularly twice as the rustoleum did -- it will be another color in about a year, more so if left outside.
 
That's what I used on it the last time about 10 years ago and it had faded a bit but not a lot for the amount of time it has sit out side. This time it has an indoor home
