- Today I am renewing the Studebaker Golden Hawk. The model is very rare, so I was glad to get it. I decided to unconventionally cover this model with 24K gold flakes because I have always had a great love for Studebaker. You can turn on subtitles in your language in the video. We need to know that this company has created a lot of really great cars over the years. The name Golden Hawk prompted me to do just that. In this episode, I did not use a primer, but a special glue for sticking gold petals. I protected the whole thing with a clear acrylic varnish. The gold application process is very laborious and the applied structure differs from conventional paint. Therefore, not everyone can like it. I made the missing tires from black-dyed molding polyurethane, and the box resembled the original one used to sell this model. Thank you for watching the movie, I publish videos with the repair of cars on Tuesdays and Saturdays.

I was just scrolling through CZcams videos when I saw the Studebaker. Then I read the caption.....and I said to myself, "Naaah. He's not going to actually put real GOLD on the car?" And then I watched you do it. Wow. Now you've got a true gold Goldenhawk. When you say it took 4 hours to get it right....I believe you. Great Original Job. Chalon Aubrey.
Many thanks!
Love your channel this one didn’t come out too great but an amazing attempt
Thank you very much
Tutaj można potraktować koncepcję "Złotego Jastrzębia" dosłownie...😜🤣
Doskonała praca mój drogi Pawle. Wyobrażam sobie, że nakładanie złotej folii zajmuje wiele godzin i muszę przyznać, że nie miałabym do tego zręczności. Efekt jest fantastyczny i wyjątkowy pod każdym względem. 👍🏼😎
Paweł, jestem zachwycona, zdecydowanie kciuki ode mnie za to 👍🏼.
Bardzo dziękuję za udostępnienie. Miłego weekendu dla ciebie i twojej rodziny i pozostań bezpieczny i zdrowy.
Trzymaj się dobrej roboty mój przyjacielu 👍🏼
Pozdrowienia od szalonego staruszka DIE CAST z wybrzeża Morza Północnego.

Here you can take the concept of the "Golden Hawk" literally...😜🤣
Excellent work my dear Paul. I can imagine it takes hours to apply the gold foil and I must admit I wouldn't have the dexterity to do it. The result is fantastic and unique in every way. 👍🏼😎
Paul, I'm thrilled, definitely a thumbs up from me for this 👍🏼.
Thank you so much for sharing. Have a great weekend to you and your family and stay safe and sound.
Keep up the good work, mate.👍🏼
Greetings from the DIE CAST crazy old man on the North Sea shore.
😎👍🏼🇵🇱✌🏼🇩🇪👍🏼🤠
Hier kann man den Begriff vom "Golden Hawk" wörtlich nehmen...😜🤣
Exzellente Arbeit mein lieber Paul. Ich kann mir vorstellen, daß die Aufbringung der Goldfolie Stunden dauert und ich muss zugeben, ich hätte nicht die Fingerfertigkeit das zu tun. Das Ergebnis ist phantastisch und in jeder Hinsicht Einzigartig. 👍🏼😎
Paul, ich bin begeistert, von mir ganz klar ein Daumen hoch dafür 👍🏼
Vielen Dank fürs teilen. Dir und deiner Familie ein schönes Wochenende und bleibt gesund und munter.
Mach weiter so mein Freund.👍🏼
Gruß vom DIE-CASTverrückten alten Mann an der Nordseeküste.

Vielen Dank Paul
Beautiful restoration on a rare model(like you said). Even when Studybaker was building cars, it was rare to see one.
Thank you very much
Bardzo ciekawa renowacja. Dzięki i powodzenia w kolejnych projektach.
Dzięki wielkie
Spectacular!
When I bought my packet of gold leaf, gold was still $32US per ounce. It's over $1700US now and my packet has long since disappeared from my workshop.
Very adventuresome of you, Paul. Just stunning.
Cool. Thank you very much
One of my relatives had a Studebaker, my uncles could never stop talking about it. Everyone loved that car. Gold looks stellar on that casting. Awesome work!
Thank you very much
Wow. I think you have topped yourself in finishes. 24k. Beautiful finish. The white fins look grey in the video final. Well done Paul. I sat in awe as I watched you literally Guild this car. Truly amazing and priceless. ❤😊❤
Thank you vwery much Joalla
A truly beautiful restoration done by a truly wondrous & expert master!! Love you Paulie
Thank you very much Michael
Excellent resto applyong that gold leaf took some patience
Thank you very much Andrew
Nice casting!
Gold leafing, interesting result to see.
Cheers Marc D
Thank you! Cheers!
Fantastic job Paul, as always..the gold touch makes this even more special...I enjoyed your clip from start to finish 👍😁
Thank you! Cheers!
Tip: if you place the gold flake in lemon water and electroplate the car with it, there will be no wrinkles at all, like there's no overspray when something is powder coated. It will probably be shinier too! Nonetheless it is beautiful in the end! Great idea, great results. Respect +1
Thanks for the info!
świetna robota pokrywanie płatkami złota modelu jeszcze nie widziąłem👍
Dziękuję serdecznie
The most expensive car in your collection Paul, fantastic work, stunning finish, another master piece from the master, thanks for the video Paul,

🟨🟨🪙🪙🤑🤑😂😂😂
Mas ficou magnífica! Parabéns!! 🙌
👏👏👏👏👏
Muito obrigado
The gold leaf looks great on the Hawk! I am a Studebaker lover as well and have owned two 1951 Champions and one pickup. Very under appreciated vehicles.
Thank you very much Ron
Piękna robota ! Przejeżdżając niedawno obok cerkwii pomyślałem o tym samym :) Zastanawiałem sie nad położeniem lakieru bezbarwnego z połyskiem, może wzmocnił by efekt złota
Dziękuję bardzo. Pozdrawiam
Gorgeous!!.. looks great in gold plating!!
Thanks so much 😊
Excellent work!
Many thanks!
I like your channel, fantastic Works!!!
Thank you very much
When you do pre-work for a project, do you picture in your mind the finished vehicle, or do you make it happen as you go along?
rather, I assume the initial wounds of the project. It is known that sometimes the final effect may differ from the initial assumptions
Salut Paul, superbe restauration, bravo. Salutations de Suisse 🇨🇭 et à bientôt 👍
merci beaucoup Pedro
Probably more valuable merely on content than any other one you've done. Amazing.
Thank you very much Peter
Paul, I have no words. Fantastic !!
Thank you so much
Thanks Paul, stay safe
Thank you so much Val
That would be your most expensive car now Paul😁Good job again mate
Thank you so much Ryan
Restauração Interessante e Diferente
Gostei ,Ficou Bem Legal.
Muito obrigado
Look pretty good Paul.
Will caustic soda damage styrene model parts?
Thanks for sharing Paul.
Caustic soda is extremely volatile. It will eat plastic for lunch. Paint stripper will take paint off plastic -- try it on a spare body first, as a test. Chrome plating will come off plastic parts after a bleach bath of a few hours.
Be safe.
@@randytaylor1258 ok thank you. Trying to strip urethane paint off a styrene model body.
So far, my caustic soda has never eaten anything made of plastic. To be sure, you can try a cooler temperature bath rather than a boiling solution. However, when it comes to chrome parts, an ultrasonic cleaner removes chrome perfectly. Kind regards
@@PaulRestorer thank you very much Paul
if all else fails, Carsoin Model Sports sells a paint remover specifically made for lexane and polystyrene. I used it on an ancient siku plastic model slobbered into next tuesday with modelers paint, and it worked great. put it on and carefully scrape the paint off... and the old plastic is still alive.
awesome job as always my friend
Thank you very much
Looks great
Thank you very much
Over the top I say big one love it looks very sweet thanks Lee
Thank you very much Lee
When I was in my childhood back in the 1960s, I had a lot of British Dinky die-cast metal toy cars. I owned German Marklin models, and French Solido makes as well. Thanks to my wonderful mother who bought for me. She has passed now and I miss her very much. These toy cars were very detailed. I had everything from a Rolls Royce to a Mini. I looked after them, and before I moved to live and work in Australia, I sold them. You do exceptional job restoring cars. I like this Studebaker.
Cool. Thank you very much
Love the good plating on the roof!!
And the hood too!!
Amazing texture
Thank you vwery much
Hi Paul - this video is really GOLDEN!
Thank you very much
Fantastic restoration
Thank you very much Glyn
This was a big job great work.
Thank you very much
A w czym maczałeś tą szybę samochodu ?
It's either self shining floor polish like MMM does or if you look at some of his other videos you can see the label reads Gauzy, and it's a glass coat, agent that acts like a clearcoat
Amazing work Paul!!!!!!!!!
Thank you very much
Amazing job Paul ! Thanks for sharing!
Please, what type or polyurethane brand are you using to clone the tyres? And the glass liquid restorer?
Thanks!!
thank you very much. this is a normal molding polyurethane used for example in the construction of concrete paving stones. the Polish name will tell you nothing. you have to look for something in your market. this polyurethane is two-component. while the liquid for regenerating plastic is Spanish and is called gauzy agent
@@PaulRestorer Thank you Paul, if is a spanish brand it will be not difficult for me to find it, as I' m Spanish .Good job
Nice detailing...
Wow Awesome Paul looks out of this world 👍😎
Thank you very much
No, dałeś czadu kolego :) Gdybyś kiedyś potrzebował customowej ilustracji do pudełka w stylu Matchbox Superfast, to daj znać. PZ!
Dzięki wielkie
Gran trabajo MAESTRO!! La mejor restauración que he visto sin duda alguna. Saludos desde Costa Rica
Muchas gracias
Paul, trabajo muy meticuloso, delicado y prolijo.
Felicitaciones y gracias por compartirlo
Muchas gracias
fantastic
good job paul restorer😍👍
Thank you so much 😀
The original coating came off a lot easier than I would have expected! I was never keen on those plated Corgis, but your restoration works not badly at all, though a four hour 'paint job' is a bit of a tall order!
I wonder what they actually used, myself. many years ago I had one of these castings, too, also plated. I could scrape off the remains of plating with a sharpened screwdriver and it flaked off easily.
the entire coating was removed from the model within a minute and I also thought it would take much longer. Kind regards
Certainly, the metallized coating was silver in color and on it they wore a colorless varnish depending on what shade of Plater they wanted to get, they added such a dye To the colorless varnish
@@PaulRestorer sounds like an early version of what the Molotov pens are using, with a clear coating. I have seen these castings in silver and gold-ish livery, too. but the paint coat doesn't seem to stay long, it seems.
Very nice job 👍👌
Thank you vwery much Mark
My favorite youtube channel.
Thank you very much Henk
Great job not to everyone’s liking as you have found,but so what it’s your model to do as you please what’s the use of restoring if you don’t push the bounds now and then ( I quite like it )
Thank you very much Alan
Można powiedzieć '' najbardziej'' wartościowy okaz w kolekcji.
Dokładnie
it was amazing work
Thank you very much
Hi Paul, did you find stressful the process of the leafs of gold??? Would you do it again??
It was quite tiring. I will try to do something else with gold, but in a completely different form. Kind regards
A different approach.. But I love it!!
What drill do you use for the screws?
I use a 1.6 mm drill
Goldfinger's car 😁....well done Paul 👍
Thank you very much
Damn at the beginning i thought that car it might look like a chocolate candy ball or something like that , but at the end the result was astonishing, thanks for this i learn all the time now im ready to fix my car toys from my childhood
Thank you very much, cool
Magnífico estupendo excelente restauración 👏👏👏 cada trabajo vas superando la calidad 👏👏👏
Mucgas gracias Gustavo
Amazing quality Paul 👍😎
Thank you very much Raymond
Quedo muy bonito, una tecnica diferente me sorprendiste, amigo alguna vez has pintado algun carrito con pintura electrostatica, el acabado de esa pintura es genial
Muchas gracias nunca pintado con pintura electrostatica
Extraordinary!
Very different Paul , but very cool.
I like the gold leaf work . I am working on a V W Bug now , in a different metal, you will like it . , coming out soon .
SOOO KOOOLLLLLL .
mIKE .
Many thanks!
Awesome job.
Thank you very much
I HAD one of these chrome-plated beauties!! Got it in Canada in the 60's while visiting Niagara Falls. Played with it like all the other diecast items I had. Stupid a$$ ended up pouring lighter fluid on it & lighting it up!! What did I know about "collectability"?
Johann Goldmember's new ride?
Very nice!
Thank you! Cheers!
I wonder what the car would of looked like electro plated?
I'm sure it would look great but it's quite a complex process. maybe sometime in the future I'll try to do something like that
Thanks for sharing
Thanks for watching!
Złoty a skromny 👍
Jakież to trafne. Dzięki wielkie
💯💯💯👍👍👍👍👍
Very original!! Is 1:43 or 1:64 scale?
Thanks 1: 43
The took alot of patients to do Paul , 4 hours , l think l would've given up after 4 minutes 😆..... Great job though 👍
beautiful
Dzięki wielkie
good job ... but I would have avoided ... the gold leaf ... for a spray gold paint ... so I don't like the final result ... spray would have had more effect ... personal opinion ...
Nothing matches real gold -- photos don't do it justice.
Szia Paul.Nagyon klassz. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
nagyon szépen köszönjük
