Brewingale Posted May 15, 2007 Share Posted May 15, 2007 Apart from the obvious what other red's AND grey's are a good match for Massey Ferguson models? On real machines the newer one's seem to have an orangier red than the old one's, is this true or Is it just me? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gav836 Posted May 15, 2007 Share Posted May 15, 2007 Out of Halfords or any other motor factor place Ford Radiant Red or Plasticote Red paint aren't too far out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In particular good matches for a 590/595 and a 135 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tractorman810 Posted May 15, 2007 Share Posted May 15, 2007 if you have a massey dealer near by?? go for their paint, down mine its a bigger tin than halfords and is cheaper to, 6 quid inc vat for red,silver infact all fergy sprays, all 500mls in size, halfords is 7 quid for a 400 ml??

Lord Ferguson Posted May 15, 2007 Share Posted May 15, 2007 I think that all Masseys are the same red... MF super Red.... Any pillar box red paint... Plasticote red... or as Sean says.. get the real thing... it's cheaper... and it's good paint... If you go to the dealers they will have a colour book detailing every model range and the colours used... BEWARE that French manufactured machines generally were a different base colour (silver in the case of 100 series models)... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdc Posted May 15, 2007 Share Posted May 15, 2007 I've noticed with MF red (AFAIK it has always been the same - the silver mist varies)that the primer can cause a variation too - grey is worst making it dark, white is OK but red is (I suppose obviously) best.

powerrabbit Posted May 15, 2007 Share Posted May 15, 2007 Most dealers now stock aerosol paint cans for 'touch-up' and can be obtained from stockists of Vapormatic and Sparex parts. I have a direct trade account for these firms and if anyone wants cans of paint pm me. I will look up the price for them and post here if that might help, better if I get a quantity of cans, probably will be able to to get say a dozen of various colours. Look at the Vap site and it gives the correct name/colour such as, for Ferguson, silver mist, Stonleigh grey etc etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On real machines the newer one's seem to have an orangier red than the old one's, is this true or Is it just me?
