Now that is funny!!! D2 and paint looks great. What brand paint and paint number did they use? Did you have it blasted first or just clean and paint?

I'm not sure, other than it was a urethane type paint. This guy paints all the equipment for a couple of large companies here in Clarkston, WA. He said that Cat paint will only last about 2 years outside and this will last 8- 10. It was about $110/gallon and took 2 gallons.

Ben that is a fine looking tractor, congratulations on a job well done. How is it attached to that D10 N? The D2 looks like "at best" a pusher blade LOL

Catdoc,
Did you paint on the lettering or is it decals? from where?
If it's paint, it looks very good!

Decals from ACMOC. They are very good and easy to apply. Just tell them year, model and serial number. I wish I could paint like that. Here is an early repair picture.
