Zach Bouchard said: (quoted from post at 15:54:27 10/24/07) Is the Tisco Red and Silver paint the right color? One guy on here said some colors have an orange tint to them. I would like to know if the Tisco paint is like the original. How much paint will I need to paint a Farmall M?


If you are going to use an 8:1:1 enamel you'll need roughly a gallon and a half to two gallons depending upon how many coats you need to apply. A gallon of primer mixed 8:1 should get the job done also.

IF you are going to shoot a PPG Acrylic Urethane mixed 4:2:1 you'll need about a gallon and a quart and you'll have a good portion of the quart left over after applying the 2nd coat. 1 gallon of DPLF epoxy primer mixed 2:1 req'd.

I've painted em both ways (depends on my intended use and customers desires) and it is better to have too much than not enough....

The PPG 2150 equivalent (71310) does have an orange tint as you can see by my 1950 M. It isn't that noticable in the photo but in bright sunlight you can see it... gray primer was used beneath.

The 350 I just finished is CIH 2150 enamel.... it's pretty red... no noticable orange like my M when in the sunlight. mustard yellow primer beneath

Also be aware that the primer color you apply can slightly modify the tint of the paint.

Today's Featured Article - The Cletrac General GG and the BF Avery A - A Bit of History - by Mike Ballash. This article is a summary of what I have gathered up from various sources on the Gletrac General GG and the B. F. Avery model A tractors. I am quite sure that most of it is accurate. The General GG was made by the Cleveland Tractor Company (Cletrac) of Cleveland, Ohio. Originally the company was called the Cleveland Motor Plow Company which began in 1912, then the Cleveland Tractor Company (1917) and finally Cletrac. ... [Read Article]
