I used TSC paint on a new holland baler. Its kept in an open front shed, and now 4-5 years later it is pink. I didn't use hardener, so this might affect it, but i did a lot of work, took the pick-up off, sandblasted it, really did a nice job, and now have a pink baler.

I used Martin senour synthetic enamel with hardener for the red on an oliver 77, and after 8 years it has held up ok, but there is some fading. I am planning on painting an Oliver 1655 in the future, its a work tractor, but its gonna have good quality paint on it, at the least acrylic enamel. With the amount of work it takes to do a quality paint job, I can't see how cutting corners on materials makes much sense.
