  • / Finding the right color blends of paint for my rebuild Cub 100
So I checked in Tractor Supply and they didn't have a spray paint that matched the yellow and white on my cadet 100.......I repainted my 1961 Original
10 years ago and I remember buying spray paint that literally said Cub cadet Yellow, and Cub White on the cans.
Can someone point me in the right direction for the factory color spray paint? I'm looking forward to bringing this machine I bought back in December
back to it's original luster.

Thank you

Best place for a colour march is the paint under the spindle housing on the deck.
On old decks, it generally is rusted underneath so come away in a nice handy swatch for the paint man to mix some new.

I was thinking about taking a painted part to the paint supply store in town, but then I would need to purchase all the equipment needed to mix and apply the paint.
That's why I was looking for it in the form of the rattle cans, works for best for me.

Some auto parts stores will custom mix paint in spray cans or maybe a cub dealer can order the correct color.
