k2wilson 41 #1 Posted January 12, 2017 Does anybody have a photo of a 300/400/500 series tractor with the wheels painted in the older style off-white color? I'm thinking about doing this, but I can't really visualize how it would look. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ed Kennell 37,994 #9 Posted January 13, 2017 I haven't tried it yet, but someone on here had a picture of using old decks of poker cards to mask off the tires. The overlapping cards were slid under the rim edge Looked like it should work . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That setup worked really well for me, haven't painted any tractor wheels that way but gave the wheels on a couple old trucks we had using the playing card trick. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
