Redoing my mower deck, what's a really tough paint to use?

How about sand-balsting, followed by powder-coating?

Before I got an air compressor, I had pretty good luck with Rust-oleom Industrial spray paint. The stuff wears like steel.

Powder coating would probably work really well, if you have a shop that does it nearby.

If you go with an industrial paint with a seperate hardener, check to see if it contains isocyanates. It probably will, and you need either a full-face or hood-type supplied air respirator for protection. Cartridge respirators won't cut it with this stuff.

Good luck and be careful.
