1959 Dexta Paint Codes

Post by Texasblue »

Does anyone know the correct Paint Code for the 1959 Dexta. I am in the states and would like to see if there is a PPG number or a Dupont number for the tractor and wheels
Thanks, Randy

Can't answer your specific Q, but there are lots of threads on here about paint, eg http://www.fordsontractorpages.nl/phpbb ... int#p24872

First off decide whether you want to use one-pack or two-pack. If the former, New Holland do Empire Blue & Howard Rotavator Orange, both excellent color matches to original.

I used some two-pack supplied by 'Refinish Systems Ltd, Yeovil, UK', AGRI 7019T EMPIRE BLUE FORDSON. Have no idea if that means anything your side of pond, but colour is a good match.
