[QUOTE="rodbuilder, post: 93508, member: 11975"] I do this a LOT. It's cost-prohibitive to buy ANY paint at Bobcat, so I bought my last spray cans there a couple months ago. $13 + tax for a frikkin' spray can!! So I simply prayed an old license plate - 1/2 Bobcat white and 1/2 Bobcat orange! That said - Take your samples to a local farm store that sells Valspar equipment paint. Have the pain Meister mix you up a quart of Bobcat white. BE SURE TO BUY THE LITTLE CAN OF HARDENER, OR IT WILL TAKE FOREVER FOR IT TO DRY!!! Do the same for your orange. As for the gray parts, I bought a quart of black and mixed myself, using some Valspar white. Ya' gotta love it - $10.00 a quart, vs $13. per spray can!!!! BINGO - Bobcat white, orange and gray!!! AND SAVE THE LICENSE PLATE FOR LATER USE!!!! You don't need to use a spray gun, If you have a fairly dust-free place to paint it, you can use a good-quality 4 inch roller, or a 3 inch brush, but don't get the place too hot inside. so the paint will "lay down" for you.
