Recently picked up a tractor thats painted a lighter green than it should be.
I'd rather use a semigloss paint not the standard gloss paints. I want to use a decent quality of paint but have been told that adding enough deglosser/flattening agent will weaken the paint. Ideally, whatever I spray on should be somewhat oil and fuel resistant.
So my plan is to pull the radiator, fenders, dash and clean the whole thing off with oven cleaner (its pretty clean already), then wash with TSP and scotchbrite the noncast iron parts, then paint.
So, anyone know of a semigloss OLIVER (dark) green paint for a late 1920s tractor?
Any comments on my prep phase are welcome..
Thanks!
