I still don't know 100% about what I want to do but it's time for a fresh look. Since our truck is the same thing minus the new paint job, we came up with Rust-O-Speed Shop for the name of our fictitious shop. One of the guys brought up that have a new matte clear coming out towards the end of the year and they might need a guinea pig vehicle to do some new product training on for the reps in the region. This 1957 Chevy built by Kelly & Son Crazy Painters in California is a perfect example of how much a great paint job can transform a vehicle. Trucks with patina are certainly rad, but patina trucks with old-school sign work are even better. I had meeting today at lunch with couple of people from one of our paint company vendors and my truck got brought up I told them about some of the ideas I had. I thought about going that route with the epoxy primer then having some purple incorporated in. I had a customer spray a '53 Bel Air with white epoxy primer then do a candy red roof with lace and it looked great. SEM has a " Hot Rod White" that looks awesome I gave thought about going that route. I love white vehicles especially matte white. I do not want a meticulous show paint job but I want to freshen the truck and help it look better I will put it in a few shows but at the end of the day it is still my driver pick up that will be used to haul things. Maybe you want to mix a couple metal paints on the same piece. These are just a starting point for your DIY Faux Patina Paint Metal Finishes.

Hopefully, these 20 examples show you how to patina paint and help you pick the metal and patina finish you love.
