Default QL paint colors
I went to a nearby town that has a paint store that carries PPG but the paint codes I have are for a line that you can't get in the county the store is in. Calif VOC requirements don't allow that line and apparently the codes don't translate to other PPG lines - that's what he told me anyway.

Are you guys just picking something close and calling it good? The missus likes the new CC colors but I'm resistant to changing the colors even though I'm not doing a full resto.

The IH white on mine is oxidized and looks off-white but when I pulled the tires the color on the inside looks like a very light almond. Is that what all the white looked like originally?

I'm wondering if the paint store can get the color off the wheel with their scanner or is the part too big?

Thanks

Thanks for the chart, it confirmed the codes I have. I got some ballpark pricing today on AksoNobel U-Tech, an acrylic urethane like PPG Omni that was used years ago on my Scout II, and got a little sticker shock.

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.
