The correct color for red Farmalls into the late 50's was IH 50, the brighter red. I don't know the exact year that IH 2150 came out -- perhaps Guy Fay does. Case-IH does not sell IH 50, only 2150. According to Guy Fay, Case-IH considers 2150 the replacement for IH 50 on all older tractors. 2150 is darker, in fact it has kind of an orange tint that seems to vary with the mix. The PPG code for 2150 is 71310, for 50 it is 70019, DuPont and Sherwin Williams/NAPA (I think) can also mix it. I would NOT recommend any other premixed paints other than the 2150 sold by Case-IH. PPG/Dupont custom mix versions are better. Except, I believe you can buy synthetic enamel premixed from PPG also. Synthetic enamel is what Case-IH sells, as far as I know. I do not think it is acrylic enamel. Synthetic enamel is old paint chemistry. The PPG/DuPont acrylic enamels, and particularly the acrylic urethanes are superior. Acrylic Urethane is more expensive,and sells for various prices, depending on how much you want to spend.
