NY 986,
5 years ago, I painted 3 tractors. Did the work myself. Removed all the tin. Spent weeks cleaning, preparing, sheet metal work. I used paints from Rural King, primer from NAPA. Total material costs under $200 per tractor.

I use my tractors. They are not parade tractors. 5 years later the paint is chipped up, small dents, scratches, dirty, oil leaks, carb drips, gas stains. Why would anyone put mega bucks in a professional paint job if they plan to use the tractor?

If the paint I used 5 years ago hasn't dried out, I probably have enough paint to paint mine again. But why would I want to do all that work, when painting a working tractor is short fix?
