  2. Tractor Restoration Tips & Tricks
    I've been looking for ways to remove the top layer of paint on my son's cub 123. The paint color is wrong and it looks to be a simple rattle can job. I've removed some of the paint and you can see that it still has the original IH yellow underneath. When I searched the web I found all kinds...

    Hey y'all. Just picked up my first Gravely rider today. She's a 1971 432 Commercial that runs great and just needs a light resto.

    Not that you all care but it's time for me to paint. I slapped some paint on 3 years ago when they installed my house. This was a floor display modular and has several mobile home characteristics. Some of the rooms have the strips going down the walls. Most are regular drywall. I'll be...

    I just had the most amazing episode of customer service. I am about to repaint some panels on the Allis HB112. I wanted to try the new Farm & Equipment Rust Paint by Rust Check in a rattle can, but the can doesn't give the standard "top coat with x minutes or after x days", so I emailed the...
