Kubota Orange Paint?

[JAE 3400]

Speaking of the Kubota orange I bought a can to paint a hook that I welded to the bucket and it just dribbled out no nice spray. So I took it back to the dealer to exchange it for a good one. He tried six cans off the shelf and all were the same as the one I returned. He went into the back somewhere and came back with a can with no label on it and it worked perfect. My hook looks great now.

Thanks for the info on the Valspar "Autum Crush" I pipcked some up and it matches **** close to the Kubota Bright Orange II on my freshly painted loader, I however am naturally going to use the Kubota brand paint on my whole tractor once my cab is finished, the coverage and quality of Kubota's paint is exceptional!

I looked at my spray out sample last night under the florescent lights in the garage. Its not exact enough that I would touch up the hood with it, but its close enough to paint an implement to match your tractor.

Actually, this is exactly why I bought the Valspar. Two cans I bought from the dealer last November did the same thing when I went to use them about 2 weeks ago. On one can, I changed the cap for one off of an old spray can I had and I was able to use about half the can before it stopped coming out. Couldn't get anything out of the other can. This was a non Kubota brand paint that matched Kubota Orange - can't think of the brand right now. If the dealer wasn't an hour away, I might have tried to bring them back.

After going to the dealer to get some touch up for some hooks ($16) i went to tractor supply but they do have "old" kubota and "new" kubota orange in stock for just 5.99 a can they also have JD and Blue and the rest.

Exchanged my 3 cans of Valspar Orange for Autumn Crush on the way home from work. Looks to be a better match to Kubota orange. Also, the brand I got from the dealer that wouldn't spray was Tisco Tractor and Implement Enamel. Wonder if they shipped out a bad batch of this stuff to various dealers?

As that Russian comic used to say "What a great country!" (forgot his name). 8+ pages of posts on tractor paint! I love this site.

When I bought my tractor I included a Woods mower in the financing. Although Woods makes implements in Kubota orange, the dealer didn't have one in stock. I gave him a sob story about how my wife would be upset that the implement didn't match (it's true, she's like that). He offered to throw in paint in the deal if I wanted to do it myself or wait weeks for a new one to be delivered. Of course I said I'd do it myself. When the tractor was delivered he had THREE cans of spray paint. I knew it wouldn't be enough to do the job. Anyhow, once I looked at the mower with all the warning stickers, etc. I decided to leave it alone. Wifes still upset. I use the paint for touchups on the tractor. In case anyones interested it's Bright Orange II #70000-73713. You can probably see from my avatar the bucket already needs "touch up". Three cans should do it.

Lowe's has this Valspar "Autumn Crush" 65077. It's not their Orange, it is right next to the Orange on the shelf.

Not bad for $3.44 versus $11.50 for the Kubota paint.

I also tried the Valspar "Autumn Crush" #65077 from Lowe's and my eyes don't see any difference from the original on my BX24. It's now my go to spray for touch ups.

I too use the Valspar Autumn Crush #65077 paint from Lowes, It is a **** near perfect match in my opinion, I only wish they sold it in Quart cans for a spray gun!
