I've created a lot of discussion whether Case used aluminum paint as the trim color on the rims of their tractors ... only.
I say mebbee ... since I found J. T. Case Power White #452-70, (as sold by Van Sickle at Tractor Supply) - not only under the aluminum paint on the surface of three wheels so far, but also inside the rims between the beads where there was no evidence of aluminum paint --- anywhere.
I've made a major repair on the left rim that had that nasty chemical eat great big holes in it when the tube failed and it was parked for a few years in an unimprov4d field.
That's the rim that I have not restored to what I have found as the OEM white color yet ... I was just happy to get it fixed, make it round and that it didn't fall off over the last 6 or 7 years.
It's time soon enough will come for a new coat of paint ... but right now I'm awaiting the FedEx truck driver with my new tire ...............
