Sorry for typo in title but it will not let me correct it.
I posted this on the Paint & Bodywork Forum also
Pictures below are a comparison of Rustoleum Sunrise Red and PPG Vermillion Red
The ½ inch lip inside the air cleaner was painted with PPG Vermillion Red, above the seam is the original paint

The can is Sunrise red and the cup is a small sample the vendor mixed up for me. I gave him paint code of 70075

The sway bar is Sunrise Red on the left of screwdriver and Vermillion red on the right of the screwdriver.
I have just been gathering information, I was leaning toward the Sunrise Red but after painting a few drawbar parts with it (over PPG epoxy within the window) I was just not satisfied with the dry time (without hardener) and durability
I have decided to use the Vermillion Red with hardener and have put a supplied air system on my Christmas list.
 
A slight difference in shade wouldn't bother me as much as using a better quality of paint.
I would use the PPG.
My dad brush painted this tractor 4 or 5 years before he passed on and gave it to me.
The Rustoleum he used was badly faded when I got it.

I'd go with the PPG or other 'good' paint if you have the means.
and I'm a Rustoleum guy.
Sunrise red is a nice color, but when it fades, it goes....pink.
I use Rustoleum Regal Red. A little darker, but when it fades, it stays red.
(Looks ok on Farmall, and WheelHorse tractors too.)
