I've never heard of VanSickle. Is it a regional company?

Ours currently has Rustoleum and Majic. They used to carry Valspar Tractor and Implement and there may still be a few cans in there. I've used quite a bit of the Valspar T&I and it's good stuff.

Majic does the farm implement colors with an alkyd enamel. It's made with soybeans, so your painting luck may vary...the deer may try to eat it before it dries.

Bill,

That's a great shade of orange...
I may do the same with my SEMROC version that's been primer ready for a while.
