K & B ENGINE HEAD GREEN

Postby max hansen » Fri Sep 16, 2005 8:20 am

I have tried to stay away from restoring K & B & some other engines with colored parts BUT I have several nice K & B's that need heads repainted . Now the question is what color green is used ? I have come to the conclusion that when the engines are run the paint darkens. Right now I am leaning toward "John Deere Green". Ideas any one ? Thanks MAX H. :lol:

K & B Green

Think I have found the green that is very close . John Deere Vintage , used on the old equipment , no # just Vintage . Kind of slow drying but seems like a tough one . MAX H. :lol:

Thanx for that, Max. Will have to see if there is some of that color around here somewhere. Have several heads that need paint.
