Having read the previous post's to paint i am a bit confused?
Maybe someone can direct me or clear things up for me?
Knowing that the original paint on my #109 is very durable & tougher than a dried snot on a lamp pole 20deg., below zero. Cub Cadet paint in a spray can is just that PAINT, & just a cosmetic fix.
or does it have durability to scuff's & scrapes? Probably not?
By just spraying my mowing deck with a product called 'Krud Cutter' & hosing it down produced a end result that i'm satisfied with at present. Deck re-painting will be a Winter project.
I'm going to do the same with the body, hood, etc., & am determined to spray paint the body over the existing yellow & Cadet white. Having many scuffs & scratch's i'll sand them smooth & then spray paint the whole body with a top load spray gun.
A friend who is experienced with shooting paint is going to direct me & said that I should just spray right over the existing colors.
May I add that my # 109 is going to be used for cutting & snow removal but I want it to be 'PURDY' & spiffed up a bit. I am not going to get fanatical in sand blasting or going to extreme's as one would call a complete restoration.
Soooooooooooooooo?
Should I buy a
quart of each from my dealer & just add the recommended hardner? Or should I go with the
epoxy paint that others have mentioned which will be harded to apply?
Sorry if this is a long drawn out question, but I want to explain my situation & intent.
