So where can I find the proper color paint for my '62 cub?
I'd prefer spray paint off the shelf. I know I'm dreaming, but I do want the proper color.

Re: Paint
Iron Guard 2150 Rouge Red. I'm pretty sure this is what you want for a '62. If not, someone will correct me soon enough.

Re: Paint
Hi,
Case IH dealers still sell the tractor paint in spray cans, or quarts for spraying with a spray gun.
TM Tractor at the bottom of the page sells the spray cans also, 4 colors. You didn't say if your Cub is red.

All kinds but mostly limestone rocks! They were planted a long time ago by God and now I get to reap the harvest, lol!
When I picked up my first Cub, wife asked me what I was going to farm with it? Knowing that we are living on the Edwards Plateau (Hill Country) where topsoil is scarce and rocks are abundant, I joked and said, "I guess I'll farm rocks" hence the name.
How is your project coming along?

Re: Paint
I bought the Case IH Iron Guard Primer and the 2150 red from my local Case dealer. I am currently using both to touch up parts as I clean them. I have been very pleased with both. The primer sets up tough and is hard to scratch once cured. Likewise with the paint. After I have completed all my mechanical work, I will spray the entire tractor with a gun. I plan on using the Iron Guard paints for that as well.

When you do spray the entire tractor are you planning on priming it all and then top coating?

Re: Paint
BTW. I did an awful lot of research an hardeners. Frankly, I'm scared to fool with the hardener (even with an air-supplied respirator hood). I have plenty asthma problems between Louisiana's humidity, pollen, and pollution. I came to understand that hardeners can affect you simply from skin contact... I choose not to mess with the stuff... My plan is to polish, polish, and polish the sheet metal parts to get a good shine, then protect with wax. One day in the future, I may be able to pay a body shop to hit it with an automotive paint. For now, I'm happy with the way it's turning out.
