Rattle Can Yellow for Cub 149
I am re-doing my Cub 149 and used Magic rattle can Cub Yellow from Tractor Supply on my frame. I absolutely will not use it again. Paint is too soft and takes forever to dry. I bought a can of rust-oleum Gloss Marigold and sprayed my Hydro Pump and Cylinder with it. Went on well and dried fast. Pretty sure it will be a hard finish. Looked a little lighter in color than the Magic paint. Has any one used it on their Tractor? Also saw a Rust-oleum Yellow Eq. Catipaller rattle can spray paint. Any one used this and if so, how does it compare color wise to the Cub Yellow spray can from a Cub Cadet dealer? Sorry for the long post and thanks in advance for your help. Have a great day.

I know where you are coming from with the majic brand paint.
In addition, I have found that Rust-Oleum paints are pretty good. However as J-Mech said, Cub Cadet paint is guaranteed to match. I use paint from the Case IH dealer. It's high quality stuff made by Valspar. I buy it buy the gallon and keep a couple spray cans of each color for touch-ups. |
Rattle Can Yellow Paint
Thanks for the reply's. At $17.00 a can at my local Cub Dealer, Just can't afford it. I am doing a make over and not a restore as everything will not be as it came from the Factory. I envy those that can do a total restore. Beautiful Tractors.
Have a great day. Bob |

Not sure if this matches the old yeller or new? But a good deal on good paint.:beerchug: |
For what it's worth... In my area I have found spray paint at the Cub CADET dealers is in that $17 range, but at the IH dealers it is around $10...
Good luck, |
The Valspar paint takes A LONG TIME to dry. Weeks,3-4. I did a 46" deck using the IH white. Great paint though, excellent coverage, doesn't run, and once dried it seems like it will take some abuse.

This is the Hot Set Up.

Sam Mac,
I would never use a brush or roller on my tractor. I'm from Wv. but I have my limits. Don't know if you are joking or not but no problem either way. Have a great day. Bob |

Brushes and rollers are for detailed work, a mop is what real men use to paint things!:biggrin2:
