Considering the Fisher paint is expensive by the quart, I didn't go that route. I did use fisher spray paint for the hard to reach places (since I had it leftover from last year), but what I used was New Holland factory yellow $18/quart.

I had an almost full quart remaining from when I repainted my skidsteer, pretty darn close to the fisher yellow

The New Holland paint is thick and tough like iron. I did notice the NH grey is thicker than the yellow

I repainted my machine a few months ago, ran the chains across the yellow one time and the paint came off, however the grey on the bucket still is like new even after digging in the dirt for 6 hours.

Not sure why its the same stuff

Nice job. Thanks for the tip about the NH paint. That'll come in handy down the road as we didn't get enough snow to even scratch my plow last year

All finished.

Complete fluid flush, I had some trouble getting all the air out of the lines even with the oil full, but I believe it worked its way out.

I'm sure the stickers will come off, my paint has bubbles in it, certainly no factory spray job.

Next I need to start on the F350 with some new parts, then paint the transfer tank, then check the skidsteer out, then prep the V10, then work on the dump truck im buying.........
It doesn't end in this business

Thanks for following along
