Roll pan painted.

ChuckDriver · 06-08-2015, 02:27 PM

Looks nice! What's your process for getting the worn/patina look?

Spblack · 06-08-2015, 02:53 PM

I wouldn't say I had a process. Just a bunch of trial and error. I painted roll pan blue first, then played around with some red primer, little bit of gray primer, sand it again, scuff it, laid some more blue. I just didn't want it looking new since the rest of the truck had natural patina. it was hard. its a lot easier if your doing the whole truck.

Sweet build man. I'm miles away from being done. Seeing this is inspiration!

OrrieG · 07-23-2015, 07:47 PM

Looks great, I wish I had just left mine, it had a great patina but I "had to have" new paint....

Spblack · 10-07-2015, 08:14 AM

Looks like you've gotten some pretty good activity on it.

Good luck with the sale, it's a nice truck!

Thanks. It met reserve so its selling tomorrow. I am hoping I can recover a little bit more but it is what it is. Its hard to price these trucks.
