    Default binfordm715 : Cat-yellow paint for USMC markings

    Cat-yellow paint for USMC markings

    So does this stuff come in semi-gloss? Or just gloss?

    Assuming just gloss, what does one do to tone it down a bit? Any tricks? I'll be looking to buy the paint tomorrow.

    It is semi-gloss. Remember the post that you ask about which colors to use. The cat yellow works great.

    go to your local auto paint store and pick out the closest yellow color, have them mix the amount you want and tell them to add flattener to it. it wont be glossy.

    Yeah, I mentioned it in another post. Thanks! They look great! Got the "4" sticker on the passenger door already. I went to four different stores looking for Cat-yellow and no one has them. Lowe's has John Deere yellow, but no Cat. Bastiges.... Wal-Mart stopped carrying it 9 months ago, they told me. Bastiges.... The search continues. Tomorrow (Monday) I'll check at the farm equipment stores.

    No Cat dealer near by? They have lots of it. Is it the new Cat yellow or the original Cat yellow (hi-way yellow)?
