Cat 416B painting advice

BradyA ยท 2013-05-01 07:31

Hey Guys, I'm just about complete with fixing all the leaks, repairing the electrical and replacing hyd. hoses on my 95' 416B. Before I call things complete, I would like to put a fresh coat of paint on the machine. Can anyone give me any advise? I don't have a paint booth so all work would be done in a grassy field. What is the best type of paint to use? Would an airless sprayer work? Can I use a paint brush in lieu of spray? I do know that I need to have any oil or grease removed from the machine. I plan on feather sanding any rust or paint flakes off. Anything else I could be missing? Thanks a bunch. Brady
