The "correct" color is IH 50, used from about late 1936 to mid 1949, 2150 did not show up on tractors until 1961, there were two other shades in between, 1102B and 201. IH 50 is not available from Case-IH, but can be mixed by PPG, DuPont, etc. The PPG code is 70019, DuPont code 7410. BUT, IH does recommend 2150 as a replacement for the paint they have discontinued, that does not mean it is the same shade, it is not. Hardener and paint mixed have a short life span before the mixture becomes unsprayable, thus it is not available in a rattle can. For the older alkyd enamel, hardener or not, the gloss depends on the painter, not on the hardener. Hardener speeds up curing, and will make the paint flow out better in the hands of someone who knows what they are doing (see previous statement). Enamels do not require it, urethanes do or they will not cure. A supplied air breathing system is required for hardener as the isocyanates in it will damage your lungs, eyes, and skin. A charcoal mask will not filter them out. Tractor store paints, such as those sold by TSC and Van Sickle, are low grade paints that are red, that's all -- not sure the code is accurately copied and can be about anything.

Well, he decided to go get Mom out of the house and have her drive the tractor while he walked behind the plow. You got to understand that while my Mom is a hard worker who will always help whenever she can... she had never operated farm machinery before that day. Dad got her out there, explained how the clutch was the same as in our o
