Majic paint at TSC
 
Does the Majic brand of paints at TSC have the colors for IH cubs? I've looked and never seen any. But maybe someone else's store is stocked differently.

THX,
Nate

Id look into the case/ih paint if i were you, its still fairly cheap and holds up much better.

Just my 2 cents but I've used the Majic stuff from TSC, let's just say it's not so Magic. Glad I didn't use it on something that I worried about getting a nice finish on.

Same here, it doesnt spray nice and the color doesnt last in the sun. Its made with soy beans.

I've also heard that it takes FOREVER to dry.

The TSC majic comes in cub cadet yellow for the newer cubs and school bus yellow for the old cubs. Takes forever to dry, then never really dry, sags and droops on a vertical surface.

Just bought a 90 degree Pto box from a true restorer and he did a hood comparison with majic on one side and PPG BCCC on the other, obviously no comparison for numerous reasons but the really weird thing was after two weeks of the majic finally drying, he put the clear on and all the paint cracked like a desert. Very weird. You get what you pay for in this instance but if you're just looking to touch up, their spray cans are an ok match as well as the Rustoleum almond that Lew has mentioned to use for the later IH white

My trailer, receipt, and I would have been at TSC to get our money back. Your story is only one of about 100 I've heard with the same result.

I've never used it, but I got the very clear indication that Majestic paint was the worst possible paint you could buy.

(fwiw - For stuff like your trailer I like to use engine paint with VHT being my current front runner (if you can find Tempo use that instead. I like it even more but its hard to find). It's expensive, but it holds up excellent... Avoid Pioneer at all costs).

it will harden like a rock if you use ppg hardener with it but it still looks like crap.
