Lovely outfit, how do you keep the red on the tanker shiny? Ours isnt quite 6 years old and the paint makes it look 16 years old, it's gone all dull

Thanks, nothing fancy really. I just wash it with TFR, and either sponge or use a soft long handled brush to agitate. Rinse well, and it’s stayed fairly shiny. You sure it’s faded and not just stained?

I’ve washed it once without brushing it and it didn’t look anywhere near as clean when it dried.

Ideal thank you. But you can stop showing off with the cab interior shot!!!

Hehe, sorry. I’ve got a lot of tractor pride

He's even got the correct date on the screen to prove it isn't the day they delivered it. Don't think mine was that clean the day I picked it up.

Neither was mine lol!

I think the TFR is my problem, I washed it with it and the bucket off water I was rinsing my brush in turned red and ever since the paint has been dull. Same concentration used to wash the other machinery with no issue.

That’s not good... not sure what’s happened there really. Our TFR goes on through our pressure washer so it’s easily adjustable...

Not sure why it’s affected your tanker and not anything else.

The TFR might be to concentrated, and if its red, even worse, its very easy for it to go white / dull.

That outfit looks well .............

Try spraying some diesel and hydraulic oil mixed on it. Has worked for us in the past.
