Instead of paint I used pastel chalk for the reddish-orange I wanted. It lets the gray stained wood show through like worn paint. I just scribed it on with a stiff paintbrush and then sprayed it all with dulcoat to set.

Because the building is being renovated by the gas station I figured that the original signs would be removed. I made some masks by cutting out the signs on the sheet provided and scrubbed some extra chalk where the sign were to show the area would have been protected from the elements so the paint would be in better shape there.
