How do manufacturers paint tractor attachments?

Krylon "New Kubota Orange" turns pink after 1 year outdoors.

my implements get used and arnt Barbie dolls to look at.

I wire brush and pressure wash. sand out rough spots.
I use equipment enamel and a decent paint brush. Put the paint on wet overcoating each stroke before its tacky. You would be hard pressed to find any brush strokes. Paint holds up very well.
Learned this from a old Streetrodder article.
I also have painted and restored my share of old cars. Same principle here (not with a brush though ). Not to spray over dry areas. Also learned how to sprayout runs by over painting them from another old time hot rodder.

Trick is good prep and to use a high quality paint.
