The sun shines on mostly the same spots over and over, and others are protected from elements from the tree. Just remember that a lot if times, a truck got its patina from being parked near a tree and forgotten about, or only used a couple times a year to haul yard clippings to the dump, like my truck likely was. Im gonna get the supplys and then post some progress! I dont want to do it as much as the TRUCKS guys did it. So, it's a tough, but very personal, decision for an owner. But I do tend to see more jacked up faux jobs than successful ones. I look forward to some pics - by and large I love patina and I CAN like fauxtina.
And also keep in mind that a good faux tina job isn't necessarily a less expensive approach than an average-cheap real paint job. But, REAL patina is something not everyone isn't blessed with - and faux tina is an option that CAN look good, but it's not quite as easy to successfully pull it off as it may look. But back to your question, I would venture a guess that MOST fauxtina jobs are not done with a roller, and, I think the roller job's texture tends to help the believability. So, what 's the solution? TO do it JUST right! Sorry, I realize that helps you absolutely zero. taking a "nice" paint job and squirting a few primer spots and then some topcoat and sanding through it looks very tacky in my personal opinion. But, having said that - the more successful fauxtina jobs I've seen seem to do two things:ġ) not go overboard (my 2 cents is that the Trucks! job went a little overboard)Ģ) not go "under"board - i.e.
I think the roller actually helps make it look a BIT more realistic - it seems to help the fade seem more realistic.
