Agree with Saturn. However even though I've done a few tractors with majic school bus yellow in the gallon, hardener, and thinner, it's still not great and scratches very easy. I go strong and mix 4:1:1 so the dry time is way fast. I store mine inside so they will vertually never fade. The gloss is still there big time but again, scratches easy and flakes off if you ever have to turn out bolts to repair anything. I've been convinced by others to spend the money and go the urethane paint route, epoxy primer, etc. we put so much effort in these things to look great with sandblasting and prep, why not use quality paint and be done. The rattle cans vs hvlp also there's just no comparison.
