Dexta Adverts

Post by alang »

Hi there,

Over time I've acquired some adverts and as I just got around to scanning and re-sizing some, I thought you may like to see them. The bottom left is part of an A3 size foldout brochure.
By the way all three colour adverts show the orange grills. Perhaps only the top left advert was shown in East Anglia and this confused the dealers - it shows the grills the same as the bonnet.

Cheers
Alan

Ben,
Agriline lists... "Early Dexta Wheel Red" Part Number P-42.
I'm doing up another tractor and have been priming and spraying with cans just to stop rust. I tried to get near the painting demo, at the Malvern Show, to ask for advice but it was packed out.
I keep hearing about 2 pack paint - coach enamel - clearcoat. I want to hand paint the casting areas and spray the tin work.
How have you chosen paint?
Cheers
Alan

Dexta Paint

Post by Bensdexta »

Alan,
I'm a beginner on this!

FWIW I am using Ford New Holland Q-Coat paint, which does all the Dexta colours.

This is mainly because that's what Stefan used successfully and he also did research on matching to the original colours and found the FNH paint to be a good match.

Two pack is nasty stuff so I'm steering clear of this.

Recommend a look at Stefan's site fordson-dexta.de

Let us know how you get on.

Ben
