MINI Zippo Lighter Restoration

This Zippo Lighter restoration is probably the world’s smallest ever seen. The lighter was sent to me for repair, and I will make it very beautiful again with a 24-carat gold layer and some awesome custom engravings. Enjoy the video!
I got this very small and dirty Zippo Lighter sent to me from one of my subscribers. I think its very cute and I’m looking forward to seeing if the lighter actually works, or if it’s just a useless toy/advertising item.
THE RESTORATION PROCESS
I started disassembling the little lighter. It was quite hard because everything was so small and fragile, but I manage to separate the lighters outer and inner case. Then I removed the flint wheel and the flint spring.
I cleaned the outer case in my sandblaster using very fine glass beads, together with low air pressure. I also gave the outer case a quick grinding with 1000 grit sandpaper to be able to make it ultra mirror shiny when polishing it. Of course I used a tiny polishing machine to match the tiny Lighter size.
The inner case was cleaned by hand using a toothbrush, hot water, and soap. I used my mini drill machine to polish this into a mirror shiny condition too.
I plated a beautiful 24 carat layer of gold on the Zippo base lid and the bottom case. That turned out really awesome! And after that I custom engraved a cute Hippo to the bottom case and the text “Hippo” at the lid.
When I was done with the engraving, I assembled the whole lighter again and added a new wick, new cotton balls, flint and added Premium Zippo Lighter Fluid.
It brought me such a joy for me to do this restoration video. I love repairing these odd items and I think that this turned out really awesome.

Dear Martin, Good to watch amazing restoration after a long gap. Gold plating was a unique feature in this project. Keep up the good work 👍

[@AwesomeRestorations]

Thank you so much :)

[@xcoder1122]

Regarding WD-40: It's not the amount you use, it's the time you give it. Even huge amounts of it cannot achieve anything that small amounts wouldn't have achieved equally well. WD-40 is a penetrating oil, that means it creeps into smallest cracks and displaces water, other oils and silicone, leaving a thin film on every surface it touches. All it needs for that is time and using more of it won't make that process any faster, as it's not pushed into cracks by pressure, it is sucked into cracks by tension force and this process isn't sped up by increasing the amount. Heat on the other hand will speed up the process a bit as the oil gets even more fluid (and thus even more penetrating) and heat speeds up most chemical and physical reactions in general.

[@robertwalker9625]

I remember mentioning to you some time ago when you restored a Zippo lighter that my nickname in college was Zippo, because I was a cigarette smoker back in the day and carried a Zippo windproof and was always handy with my lighter, lighting cigarettes and other rolled items (1970-71) and the folks nicknamed me Zippo. I never saw one this small and it was a great restoration and engraving. I hope you and yours are healthy and safe and I'll toast you with a KC Bier Co. Munich-style Dunkel. Cheers from this old retired coot living the dream in Tennessee.

[@markstott6689]

I liked the play on words to get you to "Baby Hippo" almost as much as the restoration, Martin. I was surprised after all of the gunk was removed to see what looked like a steel casing. From there adding the fine layer of gold was a nice touch. It's basically a tarnish free brass look. ❤😊

[@AwesomeRestorations]

Thanks Mark for watching and for your kind words I really appreciate it 👍 yes it actually looked like brass. But it was cheap very thin Chinese metal🙂

[@markstott6689]

@Awesome Restorations I guess that's the reason it burns like a Bunsen Burner rather than a real Zippo. Cheap and cheerful Chinese craftsmanship lol 🤣
