Lincoln Paint

I'm sure this probably has been covered before but I can't seem to find it.What is a paint that will match the original color of a Lincoln Classic 300D?If possible, I prefer to use Rustoleum paint but anything would be fine.AlA man is judged by what's between his legs...always ride a good horseMiller DialArc HFLincoln Classic 300DThermal Arc 181iPowermax 45Scotchman Ironworker(2) BridgeportsOkomota Surface GrinderAutoCAD 2010

Reply:If you have a panel that is painted the right color, most shops can scan it into their system and custom match it in about 15 minutes. Same deal on the minimum order though, they usually make you buy a whole pint and will put it in a spray can if needed.
Reply:Weldbead...that's a little more uh green than I was thinking.  That's problem though...the machine I got was painted blue by previous outfit. I can't find any places they missed. It needs a paint job and I kinda like the original color.AlA man is judged by what's between his legs...always ride a good horseMiller DialArc HFLincoln Classic 300DThermal Arc 181iPowermax 45Scotchman Ironworker(2) BridgeportsOkomota Surface GrinderAutoCAD 2010
Reply:This is quoted from 7A749 in my Commander 500 thread."www.billswelderrepair.com Will have the correct paint code. Personally, I would just pop a panel off when it comes time & take it in to a local automotive paint shop. They should be be able to easily match it with a spot on the inner part that isn't weathered"Maybe this will work for you. I also plan on giving Pro Decal, http://www.prodecalinc.com/ a call for a decal kit. They cut me one for an older Ingersoll Rand air compressor and then I used them for my new semi. Nice people and resonable prices."Where's Stick man????????" - 7A749"SHHHHHH!! I sent him over to snag that MIC-4 while tbone wasn't looking!" - duaneb55"I have bought a few of Tbone's things unlike Stick-Man who helps himself" - TozziWelding"Stick-man"
Reply:Thanks, I'll probably be looking for some decals once I get around to cleaning up the welder. I've used SighSpoecialists before for my trucks and trailers but don't think they have any manufacturer decals.I'll have to tear into it and see if there is any original paint left showing. Bought the welder through an auction and it was painted when I got it.AlA man is judged by what's between his legs...always ride a good horseMiller DialArc HFLincoln Classic 300DThermal Arc 181iPowermax 45Scotchman Ironworker(2) BridgeportsOkomota Surface GrinderAutoCAD 2010

Reply:According to Kaye at Bill's Welder Repair: Dupont paint codes for lincoln engine drives are:pre 1991: 6334, 1991 - approx. 1997: 45832, 1997 to present: B8012.http://www.aws.org/cgi-bin/mwf/forum...ax=&order=descThey have faceplates and decals too.Only when the last tree has died and the last river has been poisoned and the last fish has been caught will we realize we cannot eat money.                                         -Cree Indian ProverbSA 200 LincolnVictor Torches
