I have been painting cars for several years now. Just getting into restoring tractors. Putting hardener in the paint will cause the paint to harden in a sealed can. Mix it as you need it when you need it. DO NOT put soft paint under hard paint! Your cracking and chipping problem will only worsen. It will be like walking on thin ice and having it crack behind you. Thin coats are best. All you need to do is color the tractor. Not give it a heavy, almost ready to run off on the floor coat. Painting outside is not a problem with proper conditions. No wind, damp ground, and no bugs. I have seen expensive show cars that were painted outside in a gravel driveway that look better than many new cars on a dealer lot. Give it a try. There is nothing better than saying you did it and not someone else had to do it for you. Good luck.
