Painting my 4720 (have paint code)

[Gale Hawkins]

Great project with awesome outcome.

I have started rust removal, priming then apply the old Ford Blue (65-99) from TSC by brush in restoring the Ford one arm loader of the 50's-60's. The metal in them are kind of rough to start with plus the factory paint job was of lower quality. It is on sale for $25 a gallon which will do a lot of equipment.

Sorry fellas, I was in a hurry to head out of town when I finished this all up and I didn't even post pictures of the backhoe and finished product.

So here it is all done:

Fabulous job!

What did you use to all clean the grease off with?

Used a lot of foamy degreaser in conjunction with my pressure washer using hot water. Then rags and brake cleaner. Then after it got sanded down and wiped off right before paint, I had some final cleaner/degreaser the paint shop gave me to do the final wipe with. Then 3-4 coats of paint. Should hold up I am guessing.

Rustoleum "Cherry" rattle can paint from WW is an exact match for me. I added some wheel weights and it was a perfect match. Otherwise the dealer can get Branson OEM rattle can paint. I have what's left of a can of that and Charcoal which I haven't been able to find a match to suit me in Rustoleum or Krylon. The OEM paint ran me $16 a can...yes pricy.

so here is what branson was able to send me on the paint codes i hope this helps you out guys. Bear in mind this only has the red paint nothing else ignore the blue paint code that is for their agricultural equipment sold in the east.

Thanks!... Unfortunately that appears to be the yellow wheel paint for the JD line they make in Europe. I may have to eyeball it.

you mean the part that says this - ZZZZRED420ML RED 8.9R 3.5/15.1 BK0026.kj because i've used this for hood repair we have done at a local body shop and they used this code to get the red paint branson uses.

No I was actually looking for the WHITE that Branson uses on the tire rims. It's kind of an off white. Almost a cream color I think.
