Kubota L47 soon?
I bought a used implement that I’d like to quickly spray paint to match a new Kubota tractor. Other than ordering some Kubota orange ii, is there some paint that’s close or matching that I could get at Home Depot?

Thanks

Not sure about HD but any TSC or similar store should have matching tractor paint.

Kubota paint is over $16.00 per spray can at the dealer now.

Rustoleum lobster red is a very good match for Kub Orange II, available in 12 oz rattle cans. TBN thread here. Based on that I used it for some of the areas repainting a L3250. 5 yrs ago - still looks good.

What size implement are you painting?

My link - Lobster Red is pretty much right on.

This is close but nothing is as good as genuine Orange II Kubota paint. When you look at an implement with low grade tractor store paint or "close enough" other paint, something is always lacking. And when you look at genuine Kubota Orange II paint, it just pops with excitement and good taste. Plus it looks as good in six months.

When I sell an implement that is real Orange II, it sells for a premium price and PDQ. Off color paints always seem to be a struggle.

FYI the bright Kubota orange is actually the darker of the two oranges from Kubota. (face palm)

I must be really easy to please, I use the Tractor Supply Rust-Oleum Kubota Orange and find it to be plenty pretty enough to drag through dirt.

Yep, I agree 100%. OEM paint sprays on so nice.
