Faux Patina

[kens65fb]

I just picked up a 64 C-10.
The paint, is a light blue flat, over what ever color it was.
It doesn't looks too bad from about 10 feet, but not so good up close.
My time & budget is somewhat limited, so this will be a multi-year project
My plan is :

1. Engine --get it driving, and running nicely
2. Brakes, suspension, stance, steering, exhaust.
3. Wiring & electrical
4. Body Work & paint
5. Interior

I was thinking of a faux patina, for a year or two until I can get body and paint done.
I did some experimenting with a old glovebox door from an old parts bin.
I use some rattle cans that I had laying around.
First I sprayed entire part blue, then I sprayed a coat of flat red oxide primer over the blue, then top-coated with the blue again.
wet sanded with with 400 grit, then a scotch-brite pad.
I think I can replicate this look in the obvious spots, and leave the rest of the truck, mostly as is.
What do you think.
