 I have found, that removing paint from nooks and crannies on parts, can be easily accomplished by using an oven cleaner product (ie: Easy Off). Spray on and let soak for a while. Using a nylon brush and/or other assorted tools, the paint simply peels away. It can also be washed away if applicable.

I tried Easy-Off oven cleaner to degrease the frame, rear end and front axle on Earnest this weekend and I would recommend it to anyone if you plan on painting the parts you are cleaning. I don't necessarily believe in removing all the old paint as long as there is no rust under it. The Easy-Off lifted the loose paint but left the good paint in tact with no residue, just a nice clean dulled surface, ready to scuff and shoot. I left it on for about 10 minutes before hosing off.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
