Re: I don't like the stock baby blue. Thinking of dark green Anybody else done this?

Patina is that old faded paint and rusty surface and that chalky stuff that u said doesn't wash off. That's what's hot these days. Hotroders are finding cars and trucks with that (sitting out in the sun for 30 yrs) look and clear coating right over it to preserve it. My baby blue gmc has that chalky white goodness on the roof,hood and tops of the bedsides and fenders. I've been afraid to wash it because I didn't want to lose that look
