I just went into Tractor supply today 2/28/2018 and the Magic spray cans of Cub Yellow are on sale for $4. Normally $7.

I agree with Jon on this one. I used majic spray paint on something and a month later I could still put finger prints in the paint. I've also used their paint that comes in a gallon and uses hardener and it wasn't much better. I painted something red with it and after 6 months of sitting outside it turned pink which leads me to believe it doesn't have much uv protection.

Junk! In my opinion, they should pay you $4 for taking it out of the store.

Totally agree that paint is garbage! I painted my 682 with their IH Red, looked good at first and by the end of summer was faded so bad couldn't even get the color back with a buffer! Painted both my pulling cubs with Rustoleom Safety Red over 10 years ago and until I re-painted them both last year, other than a few Knicks being touched up the color was still bright and shining! You get what you pay for!!!

I agree, Rustoleum isn't bad at all. I have a 48" cut mower deck that still looks great, for a spray can job, after 7 years. The white (canvas? can't remember) is close enough to the Cub Cadet color, for me.

Canvas is too white. Almond is the closest to IH white.

Which IH white? Seems to me that it’s almost a dead match match to 935 but not the other 2

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
