Bobcat Repaint: How to Get the Color Codes
#1
Many Bobcat equipment users, during maintenance or refurbishment, wish to repaint their machines. However, due to wear and tear over time, the original paint may fade or get scratched. To ensure the repaint matches the original color, it's essential to find the correct color code.
Ways to Obtain Bobcat Equipment Color Codes
  1. Contact Bobcat Dealers
    Bobcat dealers often have access to the relevant color code information. They can provide the color codes for specific machine models. Dealers can not only supply the correct codes but also help choose the right type of paint. By contacting a local Bobcat dealer, you can obtain the best matching color.
  2. Bobcat Official Website
    Bobcat's official website may sometimes provide technical support, including product color codes. If you know the model or series of the equipment, you can look up relevant details on the site. Some websites also provide service manuals or product documentation, which may include applicable color codes.
  3. Check the Equipment Manual
    Each Bobcat machine comes with its specific user manual, which often contains color codes for the equipment. If you have the original user manual for the machine, you can find detailed color-related information in it. Some manuals even list the color codes for different parts of the machine to ensure you can spray paint accurately according to these codes.
  4. Third-Party Paint Suppliers
    Many paint suppliers or equipment refurbishment companies have experience providing color codes that match Bobcat equipment. These third-party suppliers can offer spray paint colors that are closely matched to the original, ensuring the repaint is as accurate as possible. By working with a paint supplier, you can obtain high-quality paint and precise color codes.
  5. Use Color Swatches or Samples
    If you cannot directly obtain the precise color code, you can bring a small part of your equipment (such as a sample of the paint or a section of the coating) to a paint shop or color matching store. Color swatches or charts can help you find the closest match for repainting.
Common Bobcat Equipment Color Codes
Bobcat equipment typically uses several standard colors, including yellow, white, blue, and other common industrial shades. Different series of machines may have slightly different shades, particularly on older machines. Therefore, ensuring you get the correct color code for your machine model is essential.
Conclusion
When repainting a Bobcat machine, finding the correct color code is key to ensuring the refurbished equipment looks as close to the original as possible. By contacting Bobcat dealers, checking the equipment manual, referring to the official website, or collaborating with paint suppliers, you can obtain the right color code for a perfect repaint.
