Gold Demonstrator Color?

I am building a model Gold Demonstrator pulling tractor. Just wondering what spray bomb I should use for the gold color? Thanks.
 
Do the tractor some justice and use a spray gun, not aerosol cans. Someone will have the code. The Red Power Magazine forum has more info.
 
Ken, I know you have had at least a few hundred questions about this but how are the OEM mufflers coming?

He is building a SCALE MODEL pulling tractor.
 
I am building a toy 1/16 scale tractor. Guess I should have been a little more clear. I wouldn't even attempt to spray bomb a big tractor-especially something as rare as a demonstrator.

I am mainly an Oliver guy. That's why I am here asking about the gold paint. When it comes to the toys I'll buy anything I think I can rebuild and make a few bucks on. Right now I am working on a 1466, 5488, 1456, Case 2594, JD 5020, and White American. All pullers. Also got a cool custom Oliver 1855 and 1950T in the works.

If there's a NAPA near you, Duplicolor gold will work and be close to the original gold color paint.

Guess mine has no justice. I rattle canned 100% of this tractor. You just have to know what you're doing and it will come out amazing. Wet sanding goes a long way too.

You are better than me. I used spray cans on a pedal teactor this summer and had a hard enough time getting it to look good.

Just because it looks good in pictures doesn't mean the paint will last. For one thing the thickness of that "paint job" is next to nothing. I would prefer a bad HVLP paint job than a rattle can restoration.
