This has probably been asked before, but are there any standard "off the shelf" paint colors that match the red and green/grey I've seen on Yanmar tractors?

Massey red is as close as I have found. It won't do for spot painting ,but works OK for whole panels. The green I have mixed at a local Ace Hardware and brush on. The results are usually very good.

A perfect match for the grey/green is rustoleum spruce green. OSH and Lowe's in California carry the rattle cans and quarts. Quarts are $7.99 and rattle cans $3.99. I can paint a tiller and tractor frame + with 1 quart --thinned about 15% with acetone. Massey red or something close is what I use for a complete job. Touch up that's real close is Krylon Chrysler engine red. Walmart has rattle cans and it has that red/orange look.
