Paint code question

Hello fellas<br /> <br /> Did Massey Harris have codes for all of their tractor colors and are the codes on this website pretty much exact reproductions of the originals or are these codes a result of restorers coming up with colors that they think are very very close to the originals.<br /> <br /> Thanks<br /> <br /> John

RE:Paint code question

Hi John,

Here are a couple numbers we have used to paint our stuff.  I personally think it is close.

RED - PPG omni-AE MAE Acrylic Enamel brand code 71973

YELLOW - PPG pmni-AE MAE Acrylic Enamel brand code 3274

Quality paint and it seems to hold up under the sun!!  Of course we use hardener and reducers as well.

Hope this helps a little.  I do have some NOS MH paint but I have resisted the temptation of opening it with no promise it is even good!!  It is old enough that there are no paint numbers on it anywhere.
