Hi Roverman,
I see you are in Mesa AZ.😊 Have you contacted the local Cat dealer - Empire Machinery - at the freeway and country club for the paint?
Roverman, The DuPont number for Old Cat Yellow in their Centari Acrylic Enamel is: 421A. Here is a pic of a D-2 painted with it.
The Caterpillar part number for the old Highway Yellow is 4C4185. They quoted me $54.00/gallon for it. The DuPont 421A is $145.90/gallon plus hardener plus thinner. I have just used the Caterpillar paint and it works great. The DuPont will probably last better though.
Our channel highlights machines from the earliest Holt and Best track-type tractors, equipment from the start of Caterpillar in 1925, up to units built in the mid-1960s.

"I also joined a year ago. had been on here a couple of times as a non-member and found the info very helpful so I got a one year subscription (not very expensive at all) to try it out. I really like all the resources on here so I just got a three year. I think its a very small price for what you can get out of this site."
