Snow Just don't think they paint them like the use to!

Finally got to use my new front plow on the B-7500. Worked fine although there is some learning how to needed. Practice will improve my plowing abilities

That doesn't look right. Looks like it came off in large patches. Something to ask the dealer about?

Definatly defective paintwork... Didnt adhere to the metal properly.

Agreed that it shouldn't do that and I would be talking to someone about it.

i agee, would show dealer these pic's, paint def did not adhere- looks like steel wasn't properly cleaned, then undercoated before finish coat-very poor workmanship-my front end loader looks better then that after 10 years use

Looks like a poor job of cleaning before painting!

My 2750D blower did that. It was obviously a respray from grey (underneath) to orange. Is yours grey underneath or just bare metal?

Interesting - I had nearly exactly the same experience with a new plow for my b3200 - Kubota brand - I thought I was unique - Actual blade on mine was not as bad though but the "cutting edge" nearly completely scraped off with only a small amount of use - I mean only an hour or so. I know that piece gets a lot of wear but if I compared it to the loader which gets even more abuse I would say this is wearing out way way faster. The paint on the blade "non cutting edge" is really soft and after pushing a little bit of brush it was beat up pretty good. By the way the whole machine has only 27 hours on it and the blade has only been on the last couple of hours and not used much of those.

those are painted at RAD, its a different paint line than the tractors.

I'm thinking I'd try to return it to the selling dealer. That's beyond cheesy.
