First and only post since 2011, wow.
You could always call RCBS.. they'll likely know.

I think a can of Rust-Oleum from your local hardware store would work well!

I believe 'John Deere Green' is a close match.

The new RCBS green is a Hammertone Green .You might even find that in Rustoleum or in the Hammertone series of paints.

Also try Lawn Boy leaf green spray paint. Any hardware store should be able to order it.

Yeah, the ol' original "Mean Green" paint was kinda krinkly. (Model A2 plows all my fields to this day!)

Some hardware stores have the capability to mix and fill spray cans, they just need a paint code. My brother replaced a fender on his truck and used a local paint store who offered this option (in North Dakota) and it was a very close match. I'm not so sure we have anything this cool around here as Dems are in majority but may be worth an ask.

In Vancouver we have Bob's Paintland that provides that service.
It's $40 for a custom-color rattle can.
They did a super job with the color match.

Paint it blue and stencil Dillon on it.

Paint it blue and stencil Dillon on it.

Because it will load faster that way.

@cog357 you kinda scare me. You lie dormant like a sleeper cell for a dozen years before a post. You are a patient person. Welcome from the lurking world, sincerely.

I would check with RCBS as others have advised. I did notice that Home Depot now has their Behr brand in metallic (that hand hammered look) metal tones. This might be a possibility. Great press...started with and still use mine.

STOP….. It's Hammer Tone!

I'd say this is an opportunity to make it yours and pick a color and have at it. Or send it to someone to have powder coated and it will last.

They look really nice in florescent orange.

Where to buy pink paint after new Barbie movie apparently causes temporary shortage

The Barbie movie's pink paint use apparently caused a global shortage, according to the set designer. But don't worry—you can still buy pink paint.

Much more difficult to lose that way too.

Send it out for custom cerakote?

 

[DirectDrive]

Have it "bead-blasted" and go with the industrial look ?

 

[Movie Man]

Clean the old off and powder coat it. Pick a color you want!
