I think I saw it here,....but I lost the link. It was a nicely built replica board track bike that the builder finished in a highly distressed look that was very convincing. The bike was a semi gloss gray with lots of redish areas showing through,...the saddle was even distressed looking and the top of the tank looked like it was 50 Plus years old with a grimy oil and gas stain across the top surface.

Anyone know where I can find the thread on this bike?? I would like to find out how the builder created the finish....Id like to do one this waya myself.

if you want real rust, grind to bare metal and spray with amonia on a humid day.. next morning it'll have surface rust
