    Old Bronze Sconce - Restoration - Workshop DC
    Hi Guys, how are you doing?
    In this video I show you how to restore an old bronze sconce.
    Unfortunately I don't know the brand of this wall light or the year of manufacture.
    To start dismantling I used only spanners and pliers.
    The disassemble was easy but there was a nut that don't come off.
    I washed all the pieces because there was a layer of dust, I used only soap and water.
    To remove the nut that wouldn't come loose, I put the piece in vinegar for 12 hours, but it ended up breaking.
    Despite having broken the thread I managed to remake it with another nut.
    Now with the entire piece disassembled I removed the patina that had with hydrochloric acid.
    There were some crumpled and bent parts, I just straightened them out.
    There were also some casting marks, I removed them all with the file.
    After this step I scrubbed all the parts with a steel sponge.
    With all the parts ready, I started polishing the parts in two steps.
    I applied two coats of varnish so that the piece does not oxidize over time.
    I also brushed the nuts and washers.
    And everything ready to assemble.
    I bought a new glass that was missing, wires and receptacle also new.
    I did a little test to see the final result.
    I liked it a lot and you?

    I haven't had the chance to comment in a while, but nice job with this one, man! Your little workshop helper wasn't looking very happy until you got it fully reassembled hahaha. I always love working with brass and bronze - getting it polished up and looking like new is always great fun!

    Very Nice Job on the restoration but bad choice on the light bulb a more decorative bulb would made that lamp look even more amazing

    Ficou muito bom ! A restauração e o vídeo. Parabéns! Só um detalhe insignificante: A esponja de aço é conhecida no exterior como "steel wool", algo como lã de aço. Pode-se ver em alguns vídeos estrangeiros.

    Нахрена вы пользовались всей этой химией, если в итоге все равно все отшлифовали на войлочном круге?
    Без химии результат был бы тот же.

    • @WorkshopDC
      @WorkshopDC  Před 2 lety +2

      На поверхности детали было много грязи и окисления, мне действительно нужно было все очистить перед любой полировкой. Спасибо за просмотр.
