8N Paint Colors

BobV · Jun 19, 2018

I'm doing some advance home work on selecting paint colors. Found a good red at my local PPG supplier under Nason, but have questions on the gray....,. On this web sight they have different shades of gray, looking for opinions from you'll how to make that decision

I have the same question. Tractor Supply has "Ford Red" and "Ford Grey", but I'm wondering how close they match up to factory...

if yall use the search feature there was some mention of exact colors awhile back

My local TSC carries Ford red and two shades of Ford gray.
Dark and light. For 9N/2N and later x000 tractors, etc.
The 8N should have been medium gray not carried at TSC.
Our hosts sell Tisco brand medium gray made by Vansickle.

This is "Krispy" that was painted with that medium gray.

always a pleasure to see Krispy

if only getting them to look that good were as easy as setting them on fire

Bill, are you sure the number is correct for the PPG gray? I show 31657, not 32xxx.

CJ, you may be correct as the only grey I can vouch for is the Tisco TP240.
