Hello everyone,
I was painting a log skidding implement that I just welded today, and I started mixing colors for fun to see if I could come close to the faded color of my 205-4. I alternated layers of ACE hardware brand Allis Chamers( picked it in passing, as it looked close, they didn't have MF) and Rustoleum brand "red sunrise" I got from home-cheepo. With some practice I was able to get pretty darn close to the original color except that the new paint has some gloss, and the old is very dull, but color-wise I'm right there. I notice the newer tractors have a different color, with less orange, and more red. Does anyone know what year they changed colors? Does an MF dealer carry both the new and the old red?

Wow.. A simple MF paint question and not a single reply after days....

Are you guys boycotting me or do you think I'm the wrong color or what??!! What's the point of this forum?????

I didn't know anything about a paint color change on the red color. I have always bought MF Rouge Red for everything and it matches. I use it for my tractor, but usually use TSC MF red for implements because it is cheaper.
