Re: faux-tina paint jobs

Yeah, I see some who go to a lot of work to fake patina. Again, it's their taste.
And, although that may take a lot of work and cost some money, I can still see a possible practicality in it. In that all future scratches and dings aren't going to ruin a beautiful paint job.
For me, I had to do something cheap because metal was exposed. Brakes and Steering were #1 on my list. Then I moved onto reliability. I'm actually glad I didn't dig into the body. I haven't had time to work on it for years, but it's safe.
I'm working with what I have with the money I have.
