HI
If your still pondering painting of your tractor I have a bit of advise, I am a paint rep for DuPont and the best finish you can have is only available from a professional. Paints vary so much and the amount of different products are mind boggleing, remenber this is a crucial part of the restoration and done improperly the coating WILL FAIL prematurly and you are left to do it again. So pay the extra money and have a professional refinish your tractor. I will say however when you look for a place to refinish it look to a restoration shop not your local body shop they are only interested in collision work and if they did take your tractor in as busy work it would not get proper attention it needs, also be sure and get an Epoxy undercoat and a Urethane topcoat.
