First off I would like to say thanks to Butch; Rod; and CNKS for past help on this project. I went to the Local PPG store today to find out what was available at their store. This is the only auto paint store within 40 miles of me. From post by you guys in the past and reading elsewhere I told them I was looking for PPG Ditzco (sythetic urethane enamel) or Delstar (acrylic enamel). I was told that both of these lines were NOT available and I would have to move up to Deltron. So I told them I was painting a tractor and what would they suggest. They told me they have a PPG industrial line of paint. Available in gallons only; the ford red is $53.46 and the ford gray is $33.87 including hardener. The price quote list it as Item #ALK200-201. The weird part was this paint is sold pre mixed ready to spray out of the can called a Paint Kit. The only thing you would add is 2oz of hardener per quart if you want. She told me a disposal charcoal filter would be good enough to use with hardener but think I will not use hardener after reading post here. Do not want to take the chance. Maybe this hardener does not have ISO's. Need the fact sheet!!!!
I then asked about a primer for this paint and was told they have a two part epoxy primer. Well that sounded right from reading here but when I got home and compared to past post it is not the PPG OMNI MP170 I was told to use. Quote list it as IND. Primer Item# EPX900 $33.19 per gallon and Catalyst # EPX901 $21.55 per gallon.
So now being lost with all this over whelming different kinds of paint I went to PPG site and did a search on the paints I was quoted. I can not find it any where. Guess I will call them tomorrow and get a name line for this paint so I can search it further.
Has any one heard of these paints before?????
Any advise on what to ask when I call tomarrow???
One thing I did forget to ask about was a cleaner such as DX330.
Thanks in advance guys.
