Flame Beacon - Restoration of a Beautiful Rare Rusty Lighter

Hello everybody!🖐 The Restorer is with you again.🔥😎
My creative ASMR video of the restoration of an extremely beautiful and unique gasoline lighter, which is made in the form of "Flame Beacon". This lighter is perfect for creative Halloween looks. The lighter that I restore in the video is very old, it is rusty and covered with corrosion. The lighter is probably more than 100 years old. During the restoration of this antique lighter, it turned out that it is made of brass. My goal was to restore this antique item to perfect condition. In the video, I try to demonstrate in detail all the stages of the restoration (how do you like this style of video creation?) I don't know who made this rare lighter, maybe it was done by a jeweler or a metal craftsman. If you know any information about this lighter - "Flame Beacon", write in the comments. I will be interested in learning more about such ancient artifacts. I hope you liked the result!

You could have gotten a 7, but as you artificially rusted the lighter before hand I'll need to give a 2 for cleaning brass.

[@stressmasterbk4294]

if you want a link to them lmk. they are less than $20 a set and actually last quite some time especially for this type of work and jewlery

[@Doug791]

For those of you who aren't sure what your seeing , this is a classic case of artificially "rusted" item being "restored". How do I know this ? Well , for a start , brass doesn't rust. Despite all the corrosion , the threads were nice and clean and there was almost no pitting anywhere. So , in conclusion , a fairly poor fake.

[@TheRestorer]

Found among old rusty things

[@mannywilliams6409]

Not a metallurgist but it's been my experience that brass, bronze tarnishes but does not rust.

[@TheRestorer]

It can be covered with corrosion from other metals, brass oxidizes and changes color

[@Dixler683]

@@TheRestorer ha ha funny man. The brass can corrode after YOU soak it in acid , pull in out in the air to form green copper carbonate, copper chloride or copper sulfate depending on the acid used. Once the desired color is obtained you put it in a jar with fine steel wool and bleach or vinegar to form brown rust on the object. You should make a video of you faking it. Carnival act.

[@TMD4343]

@@TheRestorer Yes Green, not red.

[@404_profile_not_found]

​@@TheRestorerif you make a slurry out of iron filings, water and vinegar you can cake it on and create a layer of iron rust on brass parts. Iron oxide in water doesn't just adhere to brass objects nearby. This video is virtually the same as people who "restore" die cast cars that are coated in iron oxide as well, despite the bodies being made of zinc alloys

[@teplan9]

It's a french lighter (MARQUE DEPOSEE underneath which means "registered trademark") and specifically one made to look like a miner's lamp. Nice job man.

[@TheRestorer]

Cool! Thanks for the information and good review!👍😉

[@senorboardhead]

No, it IS a miners lamp.

[@alexanderkupke920]

@@senorboardhead no, a lighter. If it was a miners lamp it would be bigger and the part where the pins are inserted around would be glas. Although, some models look and work pretty much like a lighter, including the flint and wheel. The wheel would just be turned from the bottom. And in most cases you would have an additional screw to set the wick length.

[@nanuq83]

A você também, belo esclarecimento! Quem sabe, sabe! ❤

[@j.l.emerson592]

Put silicone sealant on the jaws of your pliers & vise so you won't damage what you are gripping. The silicone can be peeled off & reapplied as needed. Use clear silicone so you can see what you are gripping better. Silicone gives you a soft, non-marring grip. It protects the object much better than tape. Jewelers use silicone on their tools for delicate items.

[@Elfaropurpura]

Cool tip!

I am confused, the end result is a shinny unpitted brass item, that somehow you started with a mass amount of red Iron ozide on it, that if developeed on the part would have one had to contain some amount of Iron and two left deep pits from it.. how is that possible?
