DO you folks know of a good brand and color of industrial yellow paint for a M.F. 205? I just tried some Benjamin Moore industrial D.T.M. in federal yellow. The color was OK but the stuff would not cover, even after 4 coats! Expenseve lesson! Please don't get to fancy, I am not restoring it ,it's just my helping hand and I want it to look good. Thank You,Mike

The Ben Moore paint you used is most likely a "lead free" yellow.
Lead free pigments exhibit very poor opacity and will generally take as many coats to cover as you experienced.
Lead based paints are still available for industrial and automotive use and they cover very well in 1 or 2 coats. Some companies have just chosen to eliminate them for obvious reasons. Also because they have little control over who buys them and don't want to risk the liabilities involved
