I see 2 different orange paint codes listed for Allis Chalmers. Anyone care to let me know the proper 1 for a 1950 WD? Thanks Glenn

Paint colours here in New Zealand for Allis tractors are a mix. In our own collection (mainly B"s)the colours found under bonnets and in other protected areas varies between the years. Also variation between the British built range against the USA built product.
We can line up 7 Allis B"s all with differing paint colours, from orange through to a muddy yellowy orange on a British B. Each paint job required blending the paint to obtain the colour as per the non faded sample. This has led us to assume the colour from the factory was not consistant over the years, but had slight changes in tone. British and American colours do not appear to be linked. As for only two orange colours in Allis history it may be true, but who mixed them! Interested to here from others with similar experinces.

Hi Glenn,

If you are talking about the codes listed over on the left under "Research and Info", the reference to Dupont Dulux is no longer valid. Dulux is (was) Dupont's alkyd enamel years ago and is no longer available - at least as Dulux and not at all in their automotive line. Plus the reference to 29047 is not correct for your tractor. There were two different persian oranges used by AC - an early version and a late version. The 29047 is the late version that has more red in it. The division line between early and late is 1959/1960. Everything before that used the early persian orange. I don't know about the Tisco reference. I suspect it is the late version also. The early version of persian orange is a pumpkin shade. That's the one you want if you want the original color. For that you should look at PPG60080 as the best match. If you want to stay with DuPont, try the YS074 - that's the best match I've seen from DuPont. You can see a visual comparison of the two PPG codes for the early and late persian orange at my website.

Rod, went to my carquest paint store and they showed me color squares for the diffent ones. the PPG60080 slide looked more red than orange� They further scared the heck out of me with cost. Single stage Urethane, etching primer, epoxy primer, hardner, etc... about $300. My tractor is NOT worthy of such paint at this time. That said, if that sounds about right, I'll suck it up and get-r-done soon. My experience concerns me as well. Sprayed 1 car and 1 truck over 20 years ago. Did 1 in high school shop and other at Hobby shop on base. Both had experienced help that did the mixing. 2nd turned out nice. 1st one, was sprayed too thick and an example of marathon type running. Is the $300 about right. That doesn't include sandpaper? I'd rather use quality materials and do twice instead of 3 times. Don't rally expect to get awa with once, but certainly hope so. Thanks
