I know this has been discussed before, I have tried searching and cant find anything. I was wondering if someone could post pics of PO1 and PO2, would like to see what PPG look like. I am painting my T bucket and of course it has to be orange, but, what one??? Thanks!!

see post #6 in the link.... post #10 is a closeup of the PO1. PO1 is kind of a dirty brown orange, where PO2 is more of a CHevy Orange https://www.allischalmers.com/forum/p-o-1-vs-p-o-2_topic168155.html" rel="nofollow - https://www.allischalmers.com/forum/p-o-1-vs-p-o-2_topic168155.html ------------- Like them all, but love the "B"s. |

| You might want to also consider corporate orange, which I. personally, think was AC's best color. |

| For something other than Allis I'd use #2. |

Best thing you can is get paint sample cards of each and check them out in the sun and pick then .Best to get one picked out and have paint mixer do the samples for you. It if cost a couple bucks to do that ,in the long run you are better off .Don't let someone else pick a color they like better its your T-Bucket ------------- He who dies with the most toys is, nonetheless ,still dead. If all else fails ,Read all that is PRINTED. |

Jim, HI. I posted all the paint codes in the https://www.allischalmers.com/forum/farm-equipment-knowledge-base_forum18.html" rel="nofollow - Farm Equipment -Knowledge Base under https://www.allischalmers.com/forum/paint-codes_topic119834.html" rel="nofollow - Paint Codes . The BEST thing I can tell you is to try and get a little bit of each made up and see what YOU like. Posting pics of each paint on here is a practice in futility. EVERYONES computer has a different look as to colors because of your setting. SOOoo....pics do you NO GOOD. It's something you have to try out. HTHs!!! ------------- "Allis-Express" 19??
