Who sells the dark yellow metal paint used on Cats and other digging

after welding on brackets.)

Go to WalMart with a chip or swatch of the color.
They will match it EXACTLY ! ( I've been pleased every time )

Caterpillar paint it is! Thanks all, I have ordered a couple of spray
cans.

Cheers

Hopefully it matches. I don't know when the change came but the
current Caterpillar Yellow is not the same now as it was back when.
To my eyes it has a 'muddy' tinge to it. Also I there may be a
difference from Caterpillar Yellow and Construction Yellow. Case,
John Deere and others all put out heavy construction equipment painted
yellow. I never did hear why, maybe for visibility.

JD yellow is much brighter and more vivid than the duller cat yellow.
Goes well with the green, but a large digger that color would look odd.
