Vanstractors Posted July 12, 2022 Share Posted July 12, 2022 Finally showing some progress .Anybody ever try some sort of turbo wrap or shield to protect the side shield paint ? 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B.B. Posted July 12, 2022 Share Posted July 12, 2022 Oh my, can't wait to see it finished. You're gonna do mine next right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billonthefarm Posted July 13, 2022 Share Posted July 13, 2022 If you get on Amazon there is self adhesive heat shielding. Cheap and easy to use. Comes is sheets you can trim and make it fit nicely to the inside of the tin work. The tractor would have had something similar originally. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vanstractors Posted July 13, 2022 Author Share Posted July 13, 2022 Great thanks meant to fashion something before paint just forgot .Tractor will never work other than maybe plow day or mow co to just play.Thanks again ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vanstractors Posted July 14, 2022 Author Share Posted July 14, 2022 Thank You one more visit from the Brown Truck should be able to button it up and decal it ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VortecZ Posted July 25, 2022 Share Posted July 25, 2022 On my 1466, I used a cheap turbo blanket I found online plus some header wrap material to wrap the exhaust elbow. I still work this tractor pretty hard from time to time and the pump is turned up pretty far. I painted it in 2018 and this set-up has worked out really well for me. If I remember correctly, the size of turbo blanket I chose was just labeled "T3". 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vanstractors Posted July 25, 2022 Author Share Posted July 25, 2022 Looks great ! Thank You I ended up with some shielding that is labeled for 2000 Degrees stuck on the side shield similar to factory .I have a blanket like that as well if i see any sign of distortion it will go on as well .Fall pasture clipping or a Plowday only work this one may do .Thank You again !
