- Video on how to restore a wrench. Here I am restoring an old rusty German wrench. In this restoration I removed rust, sanded, buffed, and applied paint.
▬ What did I do ?! ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
In this video, I put the wrench in a bath with rust remover. Next, I sand the surface to create optimal conditions for the primer. Before priming, I mask off all areas that shouldn't get any color. The next step is that I apply the primer and, once dry, paint it with hammer blow paint and a brush. After removing the tape, I polish the mouth of the wrench to a shine. I top off the restoration by tracing the numbers and characters with white paint and a toothpick.
▬ Good to know ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
I've always felt that old rusty wrench. That's why I can't say exactly where I got it from. Since it is already so badly worn, you can also see the mark of the company that made it. That's why I can't say anything about that either. In principle, this restoration was just a test. I have to say it wasn't that easy, you had to see if the picture was flickering (due to the exposure), the neighbor is quiet, no music is nearby, and so on in order to achieve a wonderful result. Because it was my very first restoration, I am very satisfied with the result! You too?
I used the following tools: cordless screwdriver, wire brush, tape, knife, rust remover, primer, top coat, orbital sander, file, toothpick
It took me about 9 hours to restore, without the paint drying time.

I like the camera work. Better than some of the restoration videos I have seen. They all got better over time. Started watching the Fix vise restoration first, then started with the oldest vid first so I can binge watch all of them. And, please, don't add music to them. I watch music videos all the time. And restoration videos. No need to mix them. Good luck. I have subscribed. Oh, and I love that you left your "bad idea" in.
Thank you very much for your great comment!
Very cool. That paint reminded me of the 1960ish power tools and tool boxes.
I love this hammerite paint!
Much too beautiful to be put into the toolbox, needs to be in with a fine silver. Another fantastic and beautiful restoration thank you for your videos
Nicely done sir, I was glad to see you detail out the lettering it brought a level of showmanship to the piece. Now all you need is a special place to display this lovely old tool. Thanks for sharing. 👍😁🇨🇱🇺🇸
Thank you very much!
Very satisfying video to watch, as always.
Thank you very much! 🤗🐢
that's a really beautiful collor, i love it
Thank you very much! 🤩🐢
И что делать с этим ключём? В музей или в сервант?
А зачем ключь реставрировать? Он и ржавый не хуже работает а блестящий то зачем делать нефиг?))
The start of a legend
yes
😊😊🤩🤩🐢🐢
Ya me ví todos tus vídeos y me impresiona la cantidad de tiempo que te toma y dedicación reparar las herramientas
¡Muchas gracias amigo!
Another beauty. I would paint a differential, tail shaft & gearbox in that blue Hammer Blow paint.
Very nice color ,but unless u keep that wrench in museum,it will be damaged very fast troughout the use.
Love the Hammertone paint.
That is a great looking wrench! The color looks amazing! 👍
Thank you!
Looks great chief !!!
Thank you very much!
Wow! Amazing 👽👍
Thanks a lot! 🐢
Very good ✍️
Thanks!
Very recently Started to Watch your videos , I do like your Style of doing them , very easy to watch , I'd Love to see a Still photo of your camera set up or some info on the Set up , I'm a Plumber , and My Nephew Lives 400 Miles away , he's just bought his first house and needs me to tell him / show him how to do some Basic Plumbing , and the way that you show your work , so close up and clear , would be perfect if i can do something similar , to show him , rather than the 30 + phone calls he's given me so far .............. !!!!!!!!!
Nice 😄 I think you could have avoided using primer, as Hammerite is 'direct-to-metal'..... It does look good 👍🏻🛠️
OK. Thanks for your tip

Такой ключ в инструментальный ящик не положишь, нужно кожаный чехол шить к нему

Привет Жанна Журавлева. Спасибо за ваш комментарий.
В натуре !👌
it has been restored as new. you do very well
Thank you
Very good restoration
Thanks!
Restoring a tool or any object is a totally different thing than tuning and pimping it. Your first attempt is more of the later ones. The wrench has not ever been painted as paint is not resistant to all the abuse a tool like this will face being used. A bit of the same problem is faced with filling, sanding and painting of cast iron, for example in vises. To call old tools ancient is also false. Stone age tools for example are ancient not tools made in a factory, they are just old or maybe antique
Thank you for your comment!
@@ForgottenShineRestoration You are most welcome:) Keep on fixing old stuff it is both interesting and rewarding furthermore that way you will learn a lot of utterly useful skills.
That's right, I'm looking forward to developing myself further as a result.
Well done!❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thank you!🤗🐢
At 2:24 you can see the hammer and sickle stamped into the hammer was this from east Germany perhaps?
in the next video you can restore nails
Chido 😎
Круто! Но я бы не красил, оставил просто зашлифоманным и наполированным
I am also trying my hand at cleaning the keys.
Gasoline and piece of cotton? Soft wire brush? Three drops of conservation oil, and dry it out? And its done.
Goooood job! Let the tool-soul inside. It soul of your father and granpa...etc. Dont do exorcist act like this amateur. Pseudo restaurator. Old things are beautiful and with soul, story. He is exorcist. Acid,flame,electrolyze,acid again,coffe bath,cut it, speay it by paint first time of tool life, no soul still inside....amen...history definitively cleared, deleted
Super und saubere Arbeit, aber ich finde die Farbe nicht sonderlich passend zu einem Schraubenschlüssel.
Danke fürs Feedback!
@@ForgottenShineRestoration Bist du aus Deutschland?
Ja 😅
@@ForgottenShineRestoration Ich bin aus Berlin. Sehr gute Arbeit, die du hier leistest. Und ich liebe es besonders, dass du keine Preview zeigst. So macht es mehr Spaß das ganze Video zu gucken, als wenn man schon vorher weiß wie das eine oder andere Teil aussehen wird.
@@ForgottenShineRestoration
Ich finde die Farbe großartig! 🙂👍
حبيبي والله
Hiç türk yokmu 🇹🇷🇹🇷🇹🇷
Done subc
Kommst du aus Deutschland 🤔😀👍🏻🇩🇪
Ja, warum?! 🐢
@@ForgottenShineRestoration war bloß ne Frage 😅👍🏻
Esa es la llave española no inglesa luego se ve que no conocen
Hola Bernabe. ¡Me disculpo por errores en la traducción!
Are you German?
yes ..🐢
@@ForgottenShineRestoration oh toll ich auch😅
ну, гаечный ключ то уж "восстанавливать" даже прихоти ради смысла мало)
5$ in a hardware store
The amount of work can't be worth the money. I mean how much can that possibly cost 5-10 bucks
Not much of a challenge
Better buy new one .....better then waste money on other such thing
One question: why do you think the original new tool is without paint or varnish? Only chrome or clear homogenne metal. For work safety. Because of the many parts of the peeling hard paint in your eyes in case you work overhead. In history, they have not had the option of acrylic glasses. They were not invented. but if you want to have chipped hard paint stuck in your hands ...it' your freedom...This is really not good job.
Dozens of people could have these tools in their hands, and they might have done great things with it.
Acid,eletrolyze, electric shocks, overthrow from Mount Everest,sand paper, wire brush, acid, water, alcohol, screwdriver brush, gasoline,moderm metalic paint is realy not renovation....it is sterilization of it's souls. You are tool exorcist....
(I'm aircraft (mig21) engineer, and sound engineer in very old Prague city, older then facebook and instagram together...for slower ones) Really? Wow !
waste of time
shite, also get some gloves that fit
