Ridgid Orange Paint

[BarnyardEngineering]

What's a reasonable match for Ridgid orange paint?

I think you are going to have to post a picture of the orange you have in mind. Looking at pictures the Ridgid Orange varies from light orange to red. From what I can see from the pictures unless you need an exact match Kubota 1 for the light orange or Kubota 2 for
the dark orange. I make Kubota 1 by mixing Rustoleum tractor and implement Kubota paint with John Deere yellow 50/50. The Kubota paint is "Kubota 2"

Just as an aside, some ridgid tools are red and some are orange depending on who the manufacturer was. They have a line of "pro" tools that are one color and the Home Depot tools are the other. I do not use enough of those tools to recall which is which though.

It's a 48" steel pipe wrench. I'm just looking for something believable, not an exact match.

The darker Kubota orange may be just the ticket.

Tractor Supply sells the darker Kubota orange in a rattle can. They have it in quarts too but you could paint the wrench a 100 times with that much. It just wouldn't keep as long as you needed it to.

Wow, I have an extensive collection of "Rigid" pipe wrenches ranging from 8" to 48"........they all look red to me.
'Course they're all well over 25 years old.

Yes. Rigid pipe wrenches (iron) are/were red. I haven't bought one in a while.
