I want to paint a tractor about the same color as the tin on my friend's tractor below. Maybe slightly darker.
I can't just buy something from Valspar, etc.
So I've done a little checking around and can't believe the prices.
Dupont Centari will cost about $260/gal plus hardener and reducer.
It seems they don't even sell Dulux any more.
Sherwin Williams wants upwards of $400 for a gal of automotive paint - plus hardener and reducer.
I just can't justify that kind of $.
What are some other alternatives to spending that kind of money for the right color?
What are other people doing?
I want the paint to look decent and last but I'm not trying to make jewlery here.
