Color match for Ariens White paint?
Original Message May 16, 2005 3:58 pm

The Dupli-Color engine orange is a perfect match for the Ariens orange.

Has anyone found a similar off-the-shelf color for Ariens White?

Great for snowblowing during deer season.

There's a reason for more than one snowblower.

Sounds like that's the dealer that did some touch up painting on my "free" ST824.

Thankfully, almost all of the paint is now gone (thanks to paint remover.)

I saw an Ariens with that color painted on it somewhere. It was probably here.

Garandman,

What I did to get the match for the Ariens Orange, was take a part with me with the orange color and matched it to the spray can cap. The Chevy Orange looked like the best match and it turned out to be just that. Try to take a part that is least faded and give it a try.

That's what 've done. I used the inside of the Inner Belt Guard. Wimbledon White is a pretty good match. Hard to tell as the white paint yellows with age but the wheels I painted are pretty close to the old color.
