Patina
Seems like every bike on CL has a patina. https://www.google.com/webhp?sourcei...20bik%20patina What is a patina, anyway, and how do I know if my bike has one? Is it in the crank, or the headset, or somewhere else? Can I put an aftermarket patina on a bike that didn't come with one from the factory? Does Oval Concepts make one? |

I like bikes with both patina and cachet. Nothing beats the ride of cachet. -- - Frank Krygowski |

I like bikes with both patina and cachet. Nothing beats the ride of cachet. Is that grungy red stuff I see everywhere the paint is chipped on my antique iron bike considered "patina"? It certainly seems to qualify as "a fine coating of oxide on the surface of a metal" as my dictionary describes it :- -- cheers, John B. |

Instead of waiting for the remaining paint to flake off and produce the highly desirable patina, simply paint those areas to match: "SPRAY ON RUST PAINT" http://www.sprayonrustpaint.co.uk/ http://customcreationpaints.co.uk/coating -- Jeff Liebermann 150 Felker St #D http://www.LearnByDestroying.com Santa Cruz CA 95060 http://802.11junk.com Skype: JeffLiebermann AE6KS 831-336-2558 |
