Hey Tubal, another cracking video. Never knew this was possible until now. It will work perfectly on some door handles and hinges that I’m giving a second life to at home. Thanks

Cool !...never seen this technique before.

Is the paint layer strong and rust-resistant?

Gorgeous - gonna do this on some old (brass-plated) steel upholstery nails prior to re-use on some antiques. Subscribed just because of your name!

Thanks for the sub!

So essentially, the heat causes the brass to transfer a little? Kind of like a light brazing of the part?

[@leslie2039]

Hi! I tried this method on our front door handle, but not with a torch. I used a heat gun instead. Unfortunately it didn't worked out. Do you know why? Was it the heat gun? Or was the metal of the handle to soft? It felt like I scratched it more than brass plating it 😬 Maybe you have an idea, what I did wrong 😅 thank you! And nice video!!

[@BeAMetalFabricator]

Well I'm not sure what type of material the door knob is made from but it could have been the heat gun, when using the torch you want to heat it untill the steel turns the yellow color right before blueing, that's when you apply the brass, also you need a pure brass brush! Good luck!

@@BeAMetalFabricator thank you!! I won't give up trying 😁

Will this method ruin a temper

[@BeAMetalFabricator]

It could definitely ruin a temper. I wouldn't use this method of you need your part to remain tempered

[@nicktrueman224]

Yep deffinetly as stated. Gilding paste however is not bad and gives the same finish look with practice as it's best wiped on. It's not real gold but damn it looks good

How long did it last?

[@BeAMetalFabricator]

It's still bronze and looks fresh
