I like it the way it is - but there is some wisdom behind the suggestions to paint it.

I would paint it just to give it an extra coat as it looks like there are some scratches in the green paint. I do love the old tin look as well and the grey blue looks really nice and like it belongs with that old tin.

I think you should paint the door and trim to match the rusty tin. Do it well and no one but you and BJ will know where the door is

Bay does have all that extra time on her hands!

I'm with the paint it group. Help seal the dust out and keep some of the rust from catching on clothes and such.

Paint it! Paint tends to bring a scrapped together project together for a more neat and whole looking appearance. As the Ol' Bat always says, "Paint hides a multitude of sins."

The rusty tin stays. I'm torn on the green trim. My husband really wants to paint it. I like the mis-match. The paint we have is latex exterior paint, not so sure what it will do on metal.

Ain't but 1 way to find out.....

I don't think any paint sticks to rust, not even rust colored paint.

I'M, with you on the mis matched old funky look, that green metal will last our lifetime, why not let it age and gain more chracter....it has a story to tell when you look at it
