1990 B6200, which orange?

[Blacknbluejeep]

I have a 1990 B6200 with original paint. I just installed a new loader on it before I do the final install I want to paint it to match the tractor. I bought some Kubota Orange I (70000-73710) at the local Kubota dealer but when I sprayed my loader the colour looks much different (more like pumpkin orange) almost less red than the orange that is on the tractor. I'm 100% positive the tractor is the original colour and has never been painted or even touched up.

Any one have any suggestions?

I have a bucket from a newer BX25 and the colour is closer, but still not the same. The bucket from the BX25 has more red in the orange than what the tractor is.

is a 1990 B6200 supposed to be new orange or old orange?

I owned a B6200 in the past....If I remember right, it was a deeper orange (more red?) than my current stable of Kubotas...B2650 and RTV900.

FWIW, try a "test spot" using the chevy Orange engine paint?
