[AJD] JD Paint

[Ron Cook]

Dean,
     I dunno.  I thought the AG green was darker than the Classic, too.  
I guess it doesn't matter to me as mine are all the Classic shade of 
green.  I do agree the change was with the 40 series or possibly 30 
series, I think that is called Generation II or some such.

They recognized the conflict but they recommended the AG Green for Two Cylinders at the time in the seminar. I've always been troubled by that and tend to agree with Classic for the Two Cylinders.  But.... being color challenged I have, in the past thought JD AG Green was darker than JD Classic Green.  Just goes to show that I don't have any business talking about colors with my color deficiency.  I have enough trouble figuring out which way is up at times. :-)
