I’m at a crossroads here, would it be easier to “force” some patina on this truck and seal it, or paint the entire thing. Any tips for going the patina route?
We’re not winning any shows around here by the way.

Think I’m leaning to filling the holes, sanding and painting (new trim is expensive). Other than using a mig welder and tacking the holes shut, is there another option that would work and last a long time that yall would recommend? Kind of nervous about warping the metal with a welder.
