But all the posts of tractors on this forum show tractors so clean you could eat off the fenders.

Is there a special spray or sump-thing?

Not mine! The only time she was perfect was when she drove off the truck!

Kubota orange is good with hiding dirt. I never wash my tractor. Sure... I will spray out the bucket, or get chunks of mud off the tires, just to keep the dirt clumps out of my garage... but the tractor itself, is dirty. But you would know from the pics.

I noticed mine was filthy a couple weeks ago so I washed it. Then I used some spray wax on it. Never thought I'd wax a tractor but the spray wax only takes a minute and the dirt rinses right off.

I always thought that a dirty tractor was a point of pride. It means that you really work with it and that it not just a toy that you PLAY with. :D

I've waxed about once a year. So it's dirtier than it is clean.

I do remember the first time I got it really dirty and there was something satisfying about it. Although, I was just as dirty as the tractor so when I hosed myself down, I went ahead and sprayed off my tractor as well.

I don't mind the dirt but could do without the pigeon k rap. Dose them with pellet lead when I get a shot but they love to roost in my barn over the tractor and ATVs.

Makes it real easy to wipe off the dust and dirt, or hose off the mud

My tractor is a NOT a show piece. She is a bit of a hard looking woman after only 2 years. I spray it off for maintenance, but that is about it. No, I shouldn't stack rubbish and debris on the loader arms, nor should I haul concrete in the bucket, and stacking that old bucket of paint on that load was a mistake that still shows today. I've run it into things, and slid it into things, and daily exceed the operating capabilities.
- One things is for sure, if it is between my back and the tractor. The tractor is going to take one for the team. They will make more of them. :) And dirty is just fine by me.

I enjoy washing mine I keep it waxed so I can wash her in 30 minutes and my little girl Ella calls me out when Katie is dirty. Silly dada, clean Katie's tires they are dirty and she helps win win for me.

The spray on wax does wanders as well and is cheap.
