I'm watching this to learn how to do Patina jobs on cars. I've been painting cars for many years, and always made them look as good as possible. Now I have a customer who wants a patina job. This is definitely a first for me! thanks for the "How to"!
Love the videos. Gonna do the patina on my 71 F100. My neighbors think I'm nuts but then they drive a Prius, a Range Rover, a Dodge Mini Van and a Taurus. They ( in my mind anyway ) have a cool factor of ZIP. You need your own TV show. Keep making and I'll keep watching.
That was an awesome instructional video I look forward to doing my 71 Beetle now... I've been wondering for some time how I'm going to do it.. you made it look easy.. thanks again man...
Thank you for pointing out the plastic parts bit. Really wanna petina my dodge Magnum and I can see myself halfway through grinding on the thing before realizing that. Great channel Holmes.
I'm pretty sure the whole patina thing is what brought me to your channel in the first place, and I've been hooked ever since. You make really good videos, bro. I wish I could attempt half of what you do with your rides, but this is definitely something I will try one of these days. I have a 65 F-100 that I bought with a really crappy repaint that has lots of spots where it has peeled off and is showing the primer, so I really can't make it look any worse than it already does. LOL Thanks for sharing your technique and when I ever come up with a layout of the patina, I'd like to send you some pics of how it turns out.
Thank you for this video. I have my dad's old lifted 1989 chevy cheyenne 2500. Its already patina but not a lot of rust so this will bring out the look for sure. Really appreciate it.
Thanks for showing how it's done, I have a 47 ford truck cab & doors with some patina on it all ready but making my own 18 ga bed. I am trying to figure out how to make look like the cab . Thanks again, nice work on the 37 rat.
Dude, im very grateful for this! My end result really speaks volumes. If I may add something; use a heat gun after the second or third spray, if you want that really dry, sitting for decades, looking patina. But to preserve that look, you need to clear coat it though.
Thanks for the tip! I was a bit sceptic after watching this video because it seem like this whole process presented by you won't be that easy, quick and effective in real life conditions but it's working 100%! Now my rat bike is starting to take shape :D
My neighbor patina’d out a florida f100 , thing was rust free before , idk how i feel about forcing the rust on something so clean. Looks cool though , just feels wrong lol
planning on doing this to the tank and fenders on my bike. gonna do a few layers of primer and then black on top. im thinking grey -> pale blue -> a rusted or "barn" red -> black paint. then have patches of the patina scratched throughout revealing the layers in the edges.
Dude this is awesome. I’ve used muriactic acid and hydrogen peroxide but the acid obviously sucks to work with and is super toxic. Thanks for sharing this
I used this method after watching this video. It turned out amazing! Only problem is I hit a water puddle and it dry stained the water running on the truck and I can't get it to go away. Could a guy clear coat it after the boiled linseed oil dried to prevent the water from doing this. Thanks man! Appreciate your videos!
Nice job, You can also put a fridge magnetic to it if your not sure or if you think there is thick pondo. We all know they stick to metal, well most of us still do these days
Great video, thank you so much for making it! If I wanted to apply clear coat, I assume this would be done before and instead of applying the linseed and mineral spirits mixture?
Great video, thank you very much for sharing the knowledge. Recently bought an 87 Honda Rebel that’s bobbed out, now I’m planning on doing a nice patina job to the gas tank and rear fender
Tried this on a 63 chevyII, using clear instead of the linen seed oil. Was hard to keep the rust on the metal without rubbing it all off. Left it the way it dryed and cleared the hood only Left it on for about 3 months. I dident like how it was grainey in the rust areas (from the salt I guess) sanded it back down to redo it and found the areas wer badly pitted. The hood was a brand new hood. Now im skeptical on going this route using a.clear coat. Guess the linin seed oil penetrates the metal and prevents further rust process. Any thoughts on how to wipe the granuals etc off without removing the rust back to bare metal for adding clear? Thanks and great info...
Great video. Question - does the protective coating stop it from rusting further? My doubt in doing this that when steel rusts it continues to rust! Can anyone enlighten me on this?
The way to do this without it continuing to rust is to paint the entire vehicle a rust color. Then paint a topcoat color. Sand lightly in desired areas to remove topcoat revealing rust colour below. Then clear coat the entire thing.
So whenever I've tried to do this, when I touch the rust it always wipes off. Hood was stripped to bare metal. Spray painted and sanded in areas to create a patina. I made the same mixture. I've let it sit over night a bunch of times. The rust just seems to always be a very fine surface rust that wipes off super easy. Any ideas why?
I have been thinking of doing this to the cast iron top of my table saw. I figure I need to polish the top to bright metal, then put the rust solution on there and boiled linseed mixture. Will I be able to stop there or will I need to wax it to make it slick?
loved your video. My question is If I spray the rust solution on my truck after striping paint off and then clear coat will metal continue to rust under clear coat?
Yes it will continue to rust. Clear coat may peel as well as it will not adhere well to rust. This is why he uses linseed oil to treat it and not a clear coat paint.
If you want it clear coated. Paint the entire vehicle a rust color. Then paint a topcoat color of choice. Then sand lightly in areas to remove top coat so you see rust color base coat come thru. Once desired patina is a achieved, clear coat the whole thing.
so i just did the hood of my truck (junkyard replacement was the wrong color). after applying the lindseed it is rougher than I'd like, like really rough where the rust picked up. I'm wondering if I should have sanded it with 400 or something of the sorts before I oiled it in.
@@BrokeBastardGarage thanks for the quick feedback!!! trying to blend a 97' c1500. Clearcoat is blown out on tops of bedrails. roof has a natural burnt paint patina, but any metal i've exposed doesn't wanna react. I'm guessing the body panels are galvanized or something of the sorts.... well I guess with all this staying home buisness, i've got plenty of time to get it figured.
Great video -- thank you! Does that patina dry to a hard finish that's clean to the touch? I've got a rusted steel front door that' I want to clear coat in some way so the rust won't come off on folks coming through the door. Is the boiled linseed oil a good solution for this situation? And does it last or does it have to be renewed regularly?
thanks for the great video , Im working on a 56 ford pickup and did exactly as you described for the rusting process , after 24hrs mine looks very orange IMO …. is it possible if I cut back on the peroxide (maybe 8oz instead) that maybe it wouldn't be so orange ?
Just saw this. Wanting to do something like this to my 81 c10. Couldn't you just brush on a clear coat? As to not have to reoil the whole ride? Love the vids.
I’m interested in getting this look on a bianchi bicycle. The Celeste color isn’t easy to find because these guys didn’t code the colors. Anyway does rusting the steel of a bicycle ruin the integrity of the bike even if you clear coat it after rusting?
I'm wondering what's the best way to seal it up if you plan on using the vehicle through the elements? I don't have a garage yet but I'm in the process of doing this exact thing.
Hi how are you? very good video, I want to do it to my dodge d100 could you tell me what products you use and in what order? Can the finish be done with clear? or is it made with boil linseed oil?
Great vid- thanks for the instruction and insight. One question I have is.... when spraying on the rust activator solution, will the overspray damage any surrounding clear coat?
I plan to do this to an old truck and I very much appreciate this video. The only question I have is, how will washing the vehicle affect this finish- will it wash off the linseed oil? Thanks.
I'm researching how to do a patina to my 64' GMC handi-van. It has a lot of boundo here and there from bad dings. Suggestions on how to get around this?
Camille Hollingshead on my 64 c-10. The whole passenger side was coated in bondo . I didn’t care about the dents and dings it gave the truck character. I used a wire wheel to remove the bondo . Until I hit metal then I patina it that way, dents and all. If you want to remove the dents you can spend time beating them out our replacing the panels. If you watch my videos on the 64 c-10. You will see the process, as I did it.
Bondo can be removed easier by heating it up with a propane or MAPP torch. Haven't tried a heat gun. Bondo gets weaker with lots of heat. Much easier to scrape off with an old putty knife.
Can you get very deep rust with this. Trying to match the original patina that is about 70 years of rust and is the deep ruff kind of rust. I dont want to match with rust but smooth if that makes sense.
@@scottmiller3879 so I know a few people who use rock salt and just keep wetting it with water and the after a couple days it will be that ruff rust. But I know it doesn’t really help on vertical surfaces.

Eric Argo thanks for watching. My neighbors hate me, there all people that don’t have a single tool in there garage. Screw them I build what I want.
One of the better videos out there on this topic. Great work.
Great explanation. I’m going to “expand” areas of patina on my 87’ Suburban on 42’s, and add patina. Thank you.

Post pics or where’s the video !! Lol
Awesome video Bro!! I have a 63 Vw bug that needs a new roof clip. Doing this after it's welded in.
Just picked up a 65 f100. Already started sanding. Thanks for this video!
Getting ready to my 71 F100 with Hubby’s help! Would love to see how yours came out
Perfect going to do the new rear bumper on my 55 Chevrolet Truck to kinda match the truck patina 👍
we have a 66 D200 Fargo that needs this done, now we know how ! thanks Brother
Will also be copping your negative door letter process.. thx

Lot of folks are telling me to do this to my 80 Malibu wagon. And seeing how you just I think it's about to go down
Kick ass Bastard, I appreciate to video. Well explained and easy to follow. You have a new subscriber.
My neighbor patina’d out a florida f100 , thing was rust free before , idk how i feel about forcing the rust on something so clean. Looks cool though , just feels wrong lol

Thank you ,really good and easy.
Wicked cool vid and great quality👍....gonna do this to a Caddy I just picked up. Cheers 👊
Love the technique
Any pointers for doing this on stainless? I welded a bumper for my 58 f100 and want to make it match the white rims, bezels and grille
Awesome. Sooo helpful! Thank you
Can I continue to spray my bare metal with the rust solution ?
So I tell the inspector it is a custom made "patina" finish, when he pulls out the hammer?
Bro if a inspector hit my truck with a hammer I'm beating the fuck out of him
Can you do a hand applied clear coat like Poppys Patina on top of that or would that cause any problems?
Could you put a clear coat over it to protect it ?
Excellent How To! Thanks man!
Great video, thank you very much for sharing the knowledge. Recently bought an 87 Honda Rebel that’s bobbed out, now I’m planning on doing a nice patina job to the gas tank and rear fender

Doing an 86 c10 now, Thanks!
Great vi Thanks. I suppose after all the rust is exactly as you want it, you will clear coat to protect from further rust?
Thanks for the new vid,😶we all like your show..this trick is now my trick,too cool.land o' lakes,WI usa.
Does the patina job couse the car to rot? Doesnt rust rot the car?

Hello what would you do if you come across so filler ? Love this video thanks in advance
What if I’m doing an entire vehicle, but I want the bottom of the truck to be mostly steel and the top half to be dropping rust kind of
the more you sand an area the or bare steel you expose, which means more rust
Thanks for the info, bro!
Very cool just one question how often do you have to reapply the boiled linseed oil? I have two old fords i want to do this to.
Harley Cooper I recoat every 3 months
Thanks for the explanation... I just have a question... After you protect it, will this rust over time eat away the metal just like regular rust?
Emmanuel Diaz the oil seems to stall the rusting process
Thanks for the quick reply... One last question. After applying the oil is it still possible to clear coat it?
Emmanuel Diaz you have to let it dry out completely. Then you can clear coat. Best if you just clear coat first if you are going that way
@@BrokeBastardGarage so if I understand right, I could just apply the clear coat instead of the oil right?
Emmanuel Diaz correct
What kind of wheel do you use for the grinder method, couldn’t quite understand?

I'm researching how to do a patina to my 64' GMC handi-van. It has a lot of boundo here and there from bad dings. Suggestions on how to get around this?
Camille Hollingshead on my 64 c-10. The whole passenger side was coated in bondo . I didn’t care about the dents and dings it gave the truck character. I used a wire wheel to remove the bondo .

Bondo can be removed easier by heating it up with a propane or MAPP torch. Haven't tried a heat gun. Bondo gets weaker with lots of heat. Much easier to scrape off with an old putty knife.
I appreciate the time and effort in the video. was wondering after doing this process, if you’ve ever tried to paint over it with any success?
Not yet!
is there up keep to this method like reapplying the oil and do you know of any matte clear you could use to retain the patina ??
outoftheblue911 reapply the oil about 4 times a year

Does this pose a problem if ya plan ta paint later.....hard ta get the oil off??
