We had automotive grade mixed in John Deere construction yellow. It came out with more gloss than construction yellow normally has, but that color just tends to hide it. Probably why there are no very shiny yellow school buses. This is a good contrast between that yellow old & faded. And how it looks in urethanes added gloss during overhaul. The part lying on the ground in the lower left is the original JD yellow enamel unfaded. That was used to match the color in urethane enamel. This paint is PPG's version of Imron sprayed over an epoxy primer. We used it on this tractor with tracks :) for fade and max wear resistance. . ` |

For comparison: the yellow car in the reflection was painted in a flat or no gloss yellow enamel. That particular yellow is slightly duller than the yellow on a ripe banana. Parked outside in the sun everyday, it will fade much quicker even if it's waxed than an unwaxed Imron or urethane enamel paint. . |
