Alan, I repainted a 82' 314 this last spring and it had a funny blue/green paint on about half of it. It was the toughest paint I ever sand blasted,ground,stripped and sanded off anything.Hope yours is not the same. Farley
GRP and Dusti, Not sure if it was something to do with a degreaser being applied or what . Didn't ask the previous owner, he deals in quite a few of the older John Deere's so I am not sure how long he had it. When I was taking it off it looked to me like there were brush marks in the bluish parts of the paint. Made me think that someone used a quart of so of really off-brand cheap paint and a brush. I do know where ever it was it has tough and very thick to take off and where it was still JD green it was not that bad to get off. Farley
