Re: home made patina pics

I'm interested as well. I bought a truck with all original paint, except a newly painted drivers side fender. I would love to make it look more like the rest of the truck.

Re: home made patina pics

I think that would be pretty tough to do with paint. Thats natural patina.

Re: home made patina pics

I think I read somewhere that the rat rod guys keep the rusty look from spreading with beeswax. In fact, I think it was mixed with something but I can't remember what.

Re: home made patina pics

Or you just spray it with clear. Then u can wash it and touch it without messing it up.

Re: home made patina pics

Heres my home made rusty thing!! The thread that was linked above is the process on how I did it, I don't plan to clear mine because rust changes colors and I want it to keep changing.

Re: home made patina pics

I plan on doing a mild job to my truck, something like member gringoloco did with his. I basically just want a flat looking blue with a touch of the black primer showing through in spots.

That looks good. Here are some photos of my blue natural (real, not faux) patina, for ideas on how one might do theirs and have it come out authentic.

Lmao. Thanks. Yeah, I noticed that damn diaper in the pic too. Cracks me up. I guess if you're looking for hidden meaning, it could be that riding in the truck is bliss, but being outside of it is like being a diaper in the gutter lol

I was thinking more along the lines of how it must feel to be sitting on the side of the road in a ford, broke down, ashamed and wondering how mad your friends are going to be when you ask them to drag you and your ford home again, when suddenly a Chevy drives by, blasting you with a cold wind on an already chilly day. It has to feel like being a discarded frozen diaper full of human waste.

That does look cool.

I want mine to be simple. Swap it from a step to a fleet (already have a bed) then "patina it" with a flat looking blue. I'm going to do the bed first while it's off the truck, so if it looks terrible I can redo it before it goes on the truck (either just go flat blue or with a real paint job...) I want to put "sales parts service" on the bedsides and maybe "Taylors Chevrolet" on the door, or something similar with some kind of graphic... AND add the 67/68 CST trim. At least, that's my plan.
