A urethane is a plastic, actually it's polyurethane made from urethane resins, the poly coming from the word polymer. The cheap polyurethane used in your house on woodwork is watered down and may only contain a small amount of polyurethane compared to automotive urethane’s. A polyurethane can be used without hardener however when mixed with isocyanide hardeners creates a chemical reaction which makes for a much harder and more durable paint. If isocyanides are mixed with the urethane you mix only what you intend to use because what is left over will harden in the can. There are many different kinds of paint a person can paint a tractor including a lot of automotive paints. What you have to keep in mind is most paints are not formulated to withstand oils and chemicals you would get on a tractor and a urethane will hold up much better.
