Well I got here finished today, looks great, the Base clear is almost too pretty, doesn’t look real and shows every tiny imperfection. I had trouble with the PPG stuff, first the primer surfacer was thick as playdoe and would not mix. I took it back and while I was there another guy came in with the same problem. I got a $100 refund for it. Next I went to spray the Base and it was definitely not JD green. It was very dark and metallic looking. Had to take that back and get new base mixed. It was a real headache and I’m not sure the color is right now but it looks okay to my untrained eye. Total cost for paint and supplies was over $600. The last tractor I done with enamel and it was closer to $100 for everything. I do got enough base and clear left over to do another one but not sure if I want to use it or not. She is pretty now though and I hope she lasts for a couple more decades.
Thanks for all the help, I’ll post some pics when I get them.
