Kubota blue

[dew]

I remember reading a thread sometime back about using rustoleum brand paint that is a close match to the blue on the older kubotas I think it was Night Tide. Can anybody tell me if that is right and how close does it match. Thanks for any information.

I couldn't get the old kubota blue or gray from my dealer(s), so I just took a screen that I wasn't using from one of my tractors, and went to wally world, and just matched it up with the closest color I could find there. Forget the name, but I know it only cost about a buck and a half a can...

Night Tide is the stuff, and it's a little darker blue than the original- I would guess It might be pretty close to new, unfaded old Kubota blue, but it's close enough for me & my old, non-concours restored B7100.
Pics show faded original, and night tide. Both examples in the 2nd pic are the same night tide, just different lighting.
