Looks good, I'm in the process of sanding on a 782 getting it ready for paint, what kind of paint are you using?

I just bought a gun for $16 at Harbor Freight because of the good things I read about them in forums. Is that where you got yours? I'm a little nervous now!

nope got mine a that blaines place. im sure its my fault talked to my sister in law who has a body shop (too lazy to make the 60 mile round trip twice to have her do it) said from what i told her paint was too thick. so im sure its my fault cuz even for 20 dollars im sure it should have worked better than it did. se said hit it with 600 grit wet dry paper to remove runs and hit it again with thinner paint

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
