Not to rain on any parades here. But if patina is what you want... having a rig that already has real patina is the way to go.

A natural patina with no major dents is very cool.

Yeah, but IMO that doesn't make it any less lame.

As to what color you think looks best or style of paint job, be it faux-tina or puke green)...it's the owners personal choice. I personally would never own a white truck. My opinion on colors.

Fair enough, to each his own. I guess I could've been a little softer on my opinion, but I feel pretty strongly about this. A few years ago in the world of guitars "relicing" was quite the fad. There were fools all over the planet ruining their perfectly fine instruments in the name of fake patina. This whole faux anything leaves a bad taste in my mouth. Get real people.

So bottom line....if the pink has your name on it, do what you want to do and stop worrying about what others think. Original question what about spray vs. roll on and if anyone else had done it.

Spray vs. Roller, If I was trying to achieve the same results as in the video I would follow the procedure as closely as possible.
Why not put the same amount of effort into a real paint job. It's not difficult to get good results with inexpensive materials.
