Protect and Preserve the Rust and Patina on your Hot Rod - How To

  • With the color matching basically done on the C10, I figured it would be a good time to protect the original paint/patina on the truck. I've used boiled linseed oil on all my projects for years! It's cheap and easy to apply. It's not permanent and does need re-applied a few times a year. The oil gives the paint a dull shine without buffing or polishing. I love how it brings out all the under tones of the original paint. Any one can do this process in a few hours and it will completely change the look of the car and keep the rust/patina safe!
    It seems funny to make the new panels look old and beat up but it's the look/style I like.

    I am not a big fan of fake patina, but overall I have to say I really like this truck. Love the old green paint with the primer showing through, and you have done a really good job of making it look uniform and nice. Good work!

  • @Plasticmercenary
    @Plasticmercenary Před 4 lety +1

    I’m glad you saved the truck. Wasn’t a fan of shortening it. Hate the fact of another LS swap. Glad that it is on the road though and not rotting away. Now about the oil on the truck. If someone is going to paint it they are in for a treat trying to prep the surface. The patina fad crowd is married to the look once they do that unless they take it all down to bare metal. Please don’t take this as hate. I love the channel. Big fan

    Ya I was one of the commenters that said paint that door . It looks good now I've had several 60s and early 70s Chevy trucks my first vehicle was a 1964 Chevy dually flatbed my dad's old truck he gave it to me when I was 18 years old it was same age as me I was born in 64 it was heavy duty big ole truck I loved it . It had the big straight 6 I think it was a 290 something and a four speed first gear would of pulled down a house . My favorite truck I owned was a 66 GMC fleetside short box I lowered it myself the cheap way heated the coils in front and messed with the leaf springs I loved that truck it was a six cylinder also original paint it was a pretty blue color I once owned a 66 Chevelle in blue too I miss my old Chevy's I owned a blue 70 Nova too I had to build that car I bought it as a roller. I was dumb I sold it too had a 65 Chevy 2 2 door too owe how I miss my old Chevy's

I'm a mechanic of over 30 years and I've never seen anyone put Linseed oil on a vehicle before, but hey... well done, worked a treat. Learn something new every day. ;)
