Hi All...

Everybody knows that you can get paint from Cub Cadet dealers.

Most folks also know that correct paint is available through Case/IH dealers.

What almost no one remembers is that there is a former division of IH, very much still alive, and also has the correct paints. They even use the IH paint codes with a 0 in front of the as in 0901 for the Original white or 0483 for Federal Yellow!!

It's called the International Truck & Engine Corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of Navistar Holdings.

Just FYI

I posted one that went somewhere... I'll try again...

Charles G: IH used three different whites for the Cub Cadets. I like TSC also. but they do NOT have three versions of IH/Cub Cadet white paint. You can't even be sure if the one they have is exactly one of the IH versions. The one they carry probably is ok with most folks for "fixer-uppers", but certainly NOT for historic or restoration accuracy....The same is generally true for the TSC yellow....

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.
