Technical Fake Patina paint

Has anyone used the "Fake Patina" paint from Cumberland Products Inc? Found this picture on another website. this is the look I'm kinda wanting on my 37 Ford Pickup. I've emailed the company and hopefully they will get me some info on the paint.
Any pros and cons to this paint that ya'll know of?

 

What's your pickup look like now?We like pictures.

 

Fake patina is like putting a potato in your Speedo. Just remember the potato goes in the front not the back.

 

ROFLMAO!!

yup, it looks fake alright.
Even from a photo it does not look correct. I would avoid it. If you really want that look, sand it down, and leave it outside over the winter.

 

Some dudes don't like primer spots, nor have real cash to bubble gum dip their ride in new. If one wants different then satin black, red oxide, or grey....seems reasonable to go for a marbled/twisted/fukd' up/old paint retreat....so to speak. Fake to me is trying to fool someone at Barrett Jackson......rather then just a preference for what he wants to ride with.

They have variety in sample sizing. Buy a small batch and check it out. Hard to match what you already have pre-existing though. Maybe hit the whole truck with it....crank your scuffing elbows over the whole of it all...and set that sucker outside for a season or three. Best of both worlds then....if one is vying for some sort of protection and patina. I get the thoughts of scrunge and fun....rather then polish and pamper.....but to do so for whatever reason is yours and yours alone. Get it !!

 

Some people like the patina on my truck but the only reason I have it is because I'm currently underfunded. It's gotten so bad, I don't attend shows anymore, only cruise-ins.

 

saw that car at a couple shows its really does look real old and weathered

 

Or if you use a salami it definitely goes in the front.

Pros and cons of fake patina? Well lets start with the word fake.

 

I would check on one of the Rat Rod forums...

 

Only Mother Nature and Father Time can spawn Patina......It cant be made in a "test tube"

 

That fender looks like the truck has being lovingly washed and cleaned so much the paint has gotten thin,,,I can live with that look.

But as others have said,the fake stuff looks fake..but it's your truck. HRP

 

all said and done, the more I look at that paint job, the more I like it...sue me

 

Ok having seen that car in the flesh...it don't come out of a gun like that... Lots of sponge painting went into that finish ...lot of work to Make your car look like it needs a paint job

 

Ha ha! Best reply yet! And I just started reading. Patina? we don't need no stinking patina! Isn't that what the artsy schmartzy people look for in an old car? I say leave it like it is or give it a NEW paintjob and leave it sit outside for 20 years,now that's patina(i hate that word)!

 

It's already pre patinad( i hate that word)!

 

My Nomad gets a nice patina every few years, and before I remember that all the cool kids have it, I buff it out. When will I learn?

 

Leave it the way it is if you want it to look old and weathered- the fake paint thing is kind of in "no man's land" I think- not stock,custom,hot rod,street rod (sorry), it's just..... well it's just fake(kinda like those big "fuel injection" covers you can put over your 4 bbl (????)Don't mess with Mother Nature!

 

Rather than sue you, we should all chip in and buy you glasses! Have you lost your HAMB hat,too?

 

The only thing worse than fake patina is when they clear over it.

 

Or take something down to bare steel and clear it. Some ppl should be clubbed like baby seals...

 

Let me paint it for you. All my paint jobs turn out like that.

 

Hahaha !! Blowby nailed it ! LMAO

 

Does fake patina include lettering truck doors with old speed shop logos?

 

I've seen this car and I'm not sure I'd call it fake patina. It's an unusual paint job for sure, but in person it looks damn good. And yea, as someone else said you don't just point the sprayer at the car and this finish comes out. There is one hell of a lot of work to get this result. And another thing, if you have the talent you can do it with any brand of paint.

 

Fake patina is not cool, fake titties however have their own special appeal
Real titties are better still
