would that require stripping the whole car down to the frame and having it dipped?

I carry the modern masters copper stuff. If you spray it you have to remove the filters from the gun. 90% of the time when you spray it the metallic sheers and you get a brown paint. It will still patina but look gay. I’ll post prices in a few. How much do you need?
Edit: $27 per pint, which covers 85sq ft per coat rolled on, 1/2 that if sprayed. The product will patina naturally or you can buy the patina agent which is 20$ a pint, applied by sponge, brush or spray. PM me if interested.

Modern masters will patina w/out patina solution, it’s real copper in the paint. If he is selling real modern masters thats a good price. I wouldnt sell that cheap.
