If you're going to take the time to do this, do it right the first time! Nice idea but don't skip over some simple steps that would have made it easier and ended up with better results! Take 2 minutes and disassemble the plates from the barbells and the dumbbells! That will allow you get rid of ALL the rust, it will make cleaning them so much easier, & faster and save you a LOT of time from having to tape off the plates from the bars (and they will look so much better when done)! Use a tarp or drop cloth so you don't end up with 3 in 1 oil spots all over your concrete! Instead of a pail to stack the plates in vinegar, get an infant size (small) kiddie pool and lay out all the plates at once - then cover the plates with just enough vinegar/water needed so they are all submerged - you'll get more plates done (maybe all) at one time. Yes, do USE cardboard or a tarp and small wood blocks, bottle caps, marbles or literally anything under the plates so they don't stick to the surface. You can paint all at the same time with 2 coats, a lot easier & without having to twist yourself around like a pretzel. Let dry as long as possible (if inside dry for 48 hours+ after final coat). Once dry flip over and paint the other side with 2 coats & let dry. You'll get more plates painted at once and you won't end up with a painted lawn and ladder.

I did the same thing BUT I just soaked the weights in vinegar for 1-2 days. What you missed is that the vinegar reaction to the rust creates a 3-D version of the top weight over the water, rusty bubbles...that was cool. Then just rinsed, used a brush wire and painted with Rust Oleum....I used the same Hammered Rust Oleum.

Terrible tutorial!! 1. Take apart the dumbbells. 2. Soak the weights and bars in the 50/50 water/vinegar solution for 24hrs+. 3. Then use a drill with a wire brush attachment (or similar), as well as a handheld wire brush. 4. Then rinse/wipe any dust and dry. 5. Prime coat, then spray. Or alternatively just use a high quality anti-rust metal paint and prime. - By doing it this way - your weights will look restored - rather than ‘less shit’.

I know vinegar is cheap, but it's really not the best acid to use. If you don't get absolutely all of it off the surface (practically impossible with cast iron) it will encourage more rust to form. Phosphoric acid is relatively cheap and easy to find at the hardware store, but it is vastly superior for rust removal. Not only does it remove the rust, but it also converts the surface of the metal into a rust inhibiting layer.

The variation of dumbbells is extremely useful for a small person like me kzbin.infoUgkxP26Tir6n60vUkdtn4mbwhRO8cwuJQNy2 But the dumbbell size being large it's hard to do certain exercises like deadlift ( I have to have my hands and legs a bit wider to accommodate the size of the DB )Otherwise happy with the purchase. No excuse not to lift weight when it's snowing outside.

Vinegar wont hurt real chrome. Those are pro style dumbells, they aren't old they are built that way. You can take those dumbbells apart to clean them and could probably sell them for a decent price considering the handles are worth 50 alone brand new.

Certainly a beautiful job. I agree with others that it would have made sense to take dbs apart. I don't really understand soaking the weights unless it's like a hobby for you. I have an extensive collection of used plates and solid dbs (about 5k lbs). Wire brush then wire wheel to get most of the surface rust off then spray with Rustoleum. They're kept indoors so I doubt any rust will ever appear again. I don't bother working on the ones with just a bit of rust. I feel it gives them character.

Re-doing the whole thing sounds like a nightmare. I'd probably suggest sticking it out with what you've done. If the rust appears again, strip of fwhat paint you can & re-do w/ the vinegar. What it sounds like you've done is fine, vinegar is just a natural acid that eats rusts and would help get rid of "more" rust.

@KyleMalone
@KyleMalone 4 жыл бұрын
Rust-Oleum is a bit thicker, will cover surface flaws a little better than regular spray paint plus is supposed to prevent rust from getting worse (hence the name). I don't think that I'd consider using regular spray paint... Vinegar smell should go away from the weights themselves fairly quickly. Stand the weights up or maybe throw them out in the sun for a few. If it's really stuck on there, maybe it's caught in some material on the weights that needs to be wire brushed more anyhow. PLUS... Once the weights are 100% dry and you start spraying, that smell will certainly dissipate.

@@Dahon5 Depending on how well you paint & how much time you spend, your final product should be very similar. Spray is just generally easier for these types of jobs & will give you a more consistent finish. Brushing / rolling can certainly do the same thing. Depending on your weight size, I'd maybe get a small 1" brush. You can also look into a small roller as well.

there are many second hand weights on the market that are done this way. Rust painted over flakes of like crazy, you will have less mess if you just use them as it (rusty). The proper way to do it is angle grinder with wire brush wheel, then rust remover, and then just stain these, or use them as is (cast iron will not rust from moisture in the air). canned spray paint flakes and peels like crazy first time you use them, you really need to get the weights either rubber coated or enamelled, none of this methods it cheap.

Yes, should be working. Maybe give this one a whirl - amzn.to/2W6nB4t or try from a browser instead of app (or vice versa)

do 45 fit in that tub? I want to do this
@KyleMalone
@KyleMalone 5 жыл бұрын
Yes they do. If they don't fit snug in the bottom, put a few smaller weights in first (tub gets bigger as it goes up). I think I had at least 1 25 in the bottom before laying down the 45s.

Nice video! How's the equipment looking like now? Did you manage to make it look cleaner? Any thoughts on using a latex paint remover on some dumbells paint it's kinda chipping...
@KyleMalone
@KyleMalone 6 жыл бұрын
What's the end game? Planning to remove the chipping paint and re-paint the whole thing? If that's the cast, I personally wouldn't go through the effort to try to strip the whole dumbbell down, I'd remove the chipping pieces w/ a brush & maybe some fine sandpaper and then re-cover the entire dumbbell. I haven't tried latex paint remover but feels unnecessary. Sorry that I missed your comment a few weeks back, did you end up going one direction or another?

Kyle Malone I actually went through with it and used the latex stripper with some other aircraft stripper ended up quite fine with the removal and repainted them so far way better and no chipping thanks for your input! :)

You are going to stain your concrete with rust if you dont put down some plastic or towels after you are done soaking the weights in vinegar.

@@Tommygimbal For what it's worth, after doing these weights ~2.5 years ago, there hasn't been any maintenance needed on these. But certainly, I'd imagine rubber would be even less to have to deal with long term.

If you put the weights in the tub first they will take up a lot of the room and it takes less fluid to cover them.
