Bob if you are using cub cadet yellow it is quite a bit brighter than the school bus yellow that more closely matches the federal yellow. But at any rate, you're right, that paint takes FOREVER to dry among other things. There are some of us that use it in the quart or gallon, mix it with thinner ad hardener and use a gun, it's better but not great.

I've used Martin senior from napa which is still an enamel and better yet. Haven't tried the dealer paint but most say it's very good, still an enamel.

The joker Sam Mac used Duplicolor safety yellow from advance auto and said it worked well.

I'm going to try my hand at a urethane when I run out of the gallon of school bus yellow but it takes a while to use it all up. I will say whatever you decide to use or try, I recommend 100 percent to get and use a hvlp gun and mix it right, you won't be dissapointed in the results as compared to the spray can! And remember, it's all about the prep too.
