Re: faux-tina paint jobs

Yes, the suburban looks cool.
The hood and fenders look naturally weathered but still protected from the elements.
And although we know the roof is natural,
I personally wouldn't let real 'patina' (rust) have its way with metal.

I think the thing I appreciate most, or what makes me favor faux-tina, is the metal is still protected.

What I like is the naturally weathered - where the dings and dents, and wear are all part of the history of the truck.
