[AT] Headlight Reflectors and Tire Rims

[Mike Sloane]

Eastwood Company <http://www.eastwoodco.com/> sells both reflector paint 
and paint that is supposed to mimic cadmium plating (that was used on 
the original IH rear wheels). I generally just use "silver" (actually 
aluminum) paint on any of my tractors rears (I am too cheap to pay for 
the Eastwood stuff). Eastwood also sells "muffler" paint, and a whole 
bunch of other stuff targeted for the "restoration" market.
