That is a nice cart, and tractors!! when i was at the local farmers implement the other day (case IH) dealer, i asked them which is "better" paint; the cub cadet, or the case ih, of course they all said the case ih...well, i shot my tunnel cover with it after welding the manual valve hole closed, 2k primer, and blocked her out (had to get two new autos) and i was actually shocked at how good it sprayed and laid, hardly any peel... 8-9 bucks a can though, but didnt even use close to half a can, and has at least 4 nice coats on it, not that it needed it for coverage..it has been plowed with maybe 15 times since, boots, even kids standing and riding on it and not a single mark, very hard finish...i have been squirting for along time and would rather use my guns, but being without my good compressor (old man is trying to steal it i think!) I have been just shooting little parts with cans and i have to say that was by far the BEST...i have experimented with valspar (not too bad, prone to fading, takes forever to FULLY cure), majik (TOTAL GARBAGE) van sickle (ok, but has to be shot via hvlp with right mix and pressure for prof quality), rustoleum (good for touchup, will shear if sags or runs, all around not a bad paint) my favorite is ppg, however have not tried it for cubby parts, and i have not tried the case ih version of cub yellow either so i cannot attest to that...of course just my opinions is all...i also shot the underside with auto undercoating..so far so good...wonder if i should do the inside of the side sheilds with it??
