Looks great Mr. Chicken. Quality work and very fast. You still using the majic paint? I mixed mine 4:1:1. Can you elaborate how you mix yours? Do you use the hardener? Or clear afterwards?

I still use majic paint, I did go over to the school bus yellow in a gallon, its the same as cub cadet yellow but you need to buy cub cadet yellow spray cans because school bus cans are the wrong color. I mix my majic paint when doing a hopper ful 16 ounces paint 2 ounces reducer and 3 caps full of hardener idk what that comes out to be but it always works great and I can assemble next days for my majical restorations . now what do you guys use for primer, you have to have a good base for the paint I always use rustoleum white primer never failed me and works great gives a nice true color , don't spray this paint over none primed surfaces it wont come out that good .

I used school bus yellow in the gallon, and you're right, the spray can school bus yellow comes out very dull, seems cub cadet yellow is much brighter.

Btw unless my eyes deceive me you used a more correct white for this model instead of the "IH white" that you spoke about and used on the others. Can you tell us what white you used? Again, like everyone else says, you really did a fine job.

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.
