Ohhh let me tell you a story about that paint. Mike is correct the color is "Energy Yellow" It also crossed very closely to "Pensky Yellow" you know all those Penskie moving trucks you see running around. Well I have been used to painting meadow green, or clover white, or even prire gold, and have never messed with an intense yellow before. Let me tell you if you have never painted that color it is an experience. I put the normal mixture in my gun and started out painting the sheet metal while I was still working on the tractor. First piece I painted, runs everywhere. So I wiped it down and started over, backed the gun down, still runs everywhere. This paint runs terrible, does not cover worth a hoot, and you have to paint it so think that the guns clog up. What a mess.... It has something to do with the yellow paint not having enough pigment in the paint or something, it is just with bright yellows. I finally ended up painting the entire tractor with a paint brush for three coats until it covered and then spraying it twice to cover the brush marks. Then after all of that I had to tear the tractor back down again and put a BLACK 2-150 block in it. Dont even ask how many coats it took to get that yellow. So after all of that it actually does look pretty good, and it surly stands out, but if I ever have to paint it again it will become a meadow green Oliver G-1355 :-)
