Quicky paint job question
I'm not looking to restore my QLs but a fresh coat of paint would go a long way. What's the minimum I have to strip it down for painting to give it a new shine?

This is said politely so I don't want you to think I'm being a smarta$$. If you aren't doing a 'nice' paint job just knock the rust off and scuff the old paint. That should be good enough for the results you are looking for.

I usually wipe down the areas to be painted with a clean rag and acetone or lacquer thinner before painting and after sanding. If there is any substantial rust, I might paint it with a rust converter first, then prime and paint.

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.
