DIY carry all box, finishing up, need paint.

[tunin]

Hi guys,

I searched all over, no luck, thus the post. Can anyone provide the color codes for the new orange and gray for the Kubota tractors...

I live in Europe, the Kubota dealers that I was able to reach did not have the paint. Also the Chevy color is a no go for us in Europe as that color is not available at the auto paint shops... Ral 2008 does not match nor does the. ral 2009.

Please help.

Thank you.

I don't have colors for you. But with your post and regarding a carryall. I left mine in natural pressure treated color thought about painting, but why it will haul stuff and get beat up, age will give it character. I also used a Tractor Supply country line carry all frame, I didn't paint it Kubota orange either. Just me.

But love the forum---you are in Europe ..I'm here in East Tennessee..

Hi, thank you for your input, I appreciate it. I am one of those that likes things neat, I have a number of attachments for my Kubotas (rototiller, atomizer sprayer, manure/salt spreader...) and they all have a dress code (orance and gray)...

Wantd to paint the carryall box gray on the inside and orange on the outside...

Here is the build up untill now... more work to be done tomorrow.

It is just hard to believe that there is no paint code on what one can base the mix at a auto paint shop... RAL, PANTONE, CYMK...


Thank you.

Thanks mate, I actually left the post a bit on the high side so I can pull the door out on the front and slide it in the back at the top of those posts... i will post a few more photos to show what I mean...

The main purpouse for this box is when The grape harwest season is on, I needed somehting to go though the rows to pick up the boxes filled with grapes...

Hi guys,

Here are a few videos of what the result of this weeks work is... I have a brush implement to clean parkings and it had a hydraulic cylinder I wanted to use to tip the bucket... worked everything out... if anyone has any questions please ask...

NOTE: I only used items that were available in my garage as scrap or of off something else I can put back (hydraulic cylinder). recycled wheels from an old garbage container. I am not a professional fabricator or welder... (IT ing.)...

Models in the last video my grandmother 94 and her sister 87.

please do comment.

Tunin,

If you can get someone to scan a color to mix the paint, get yourself a bag of these, eating them is optional, and then have them scan the orange. Worked for me.
