Don't Grind My Gears Metal Sign - 28" Round

The artwork centers on a distressed red field with darkened edges, worn surface texture, and cream-and-black lettering that gives it a weathered garage look. The phrase "Don't Grind My Gears" is split between a sweeping script "Don't" and large block letters for the rest of the message, creating a strong contrast between hand-lettered style and bold shop typography.

To the right of the script is a mechanical emblem featuring a piston, wings, and a gear-like circular form. The colors stay tight and automotive: deep red, aged cream, black shadowing, and scuffed highlights that make the piece feel like vintage automotive metal signs without pretending to be an original antique. It has the attitude of classic shop humor, but the layout is clean enough for a garage, workshop, showroom, office, game room, or man cave.
