Silver and black don't like each other

Lets see if this will do it.

1 off
2 dim fromt lights and red rear
3 bright front lights and red rear
4 Bright front lights and rear work light (clear)

If this is what you want, get a light switch for an 06, 56, or 66 series IH. I think it will fit inside your existing box on your H. I know the hole size and knob will work. The "correct police" will never know.

But are you sure that there was actually silver colored paint on those emblems to begin with? In my own mind, what I'd do if restoring one of them(and again I could be wrong since all of 'em I've been around personally are rust-colored) is to glassbead the whole thing to where it's a satin-silver finish, then just paint in the black part...and either leave it like that or possibly clear-coat it to protect the bare areas....

If you're bound and determined to use both silver and black paint, you could always just paint one color on it, then the next day send the wife out shopping and pop the thing in the oven for a couple hours to bake that paint totally dry before adding the contrasting color....might wanna whip up a batch of brownies afterwards to mask the smell tho...

Hey, awhile back ya posted about trying to use your 3 or 4 position lite switch for another application. I can't remember what you were attempting at that time. Refresh my memory, as I did an extensive testing on my switch today, to see what all I could use it for. Mine is a 3 position switch...results might surprise you...

Most likely, your black is of some formula that allowed it first to adhere to the silver underneath, then shrink enough in the drying to pull it up.

A lesson learned best on a small part like your grill emblem. I've heard of folks that used the wrong paint over the wrong primer and had a similar mess over their whole tractor. Martha would not call that a good thing!
