Rugol Needle Nose Pliers Restoration -

[@michaeltreadwell777]

WOW, your idea of putting heat shrink on those wire wheels - GENIUS !

[@357magdad]

The concentrated bristles do a nice job in tight spots and around lettering!

@@357magdad A great reuse of another tool! I'm doing it today for a future task.

That has to be the best Evaporust challenge entry I have ever seen…. 😃👍

As much as I love watching & learning how you deal with the complex ones, sometimes these simpler restos are more rewarding. Thanks for this.

[@357magdad]

I'm glad you enjoyed it!

[@johnkelley9877]

Wow! The pilers were an incredible mess but it looks great now! I like the bluing on the handle as it gives a nice contrast to the restored and polished surfaces. Thanks for sharing this.

[@357magdad]

Thanks John! The Evapo-Rust challenges are fun!

[@mparolin42]

Those are great. What a good use of time to get them back to life. You do a great job.

[@357magdad]

Thanks Michael! Cleaning up old tools is fun!

[@LukeLong-oi4uc]

You definitely have an eye for detail. Those pliers are beautiful. I need to get myself one of those skinny belt sanders. I mainly restore framing and trim hammers, and I occasionally make things from scratch. You are very talented and you do excellent work.

[@357magdad]

Thanks for watching! A 1x30 machine is super handy!

outstanding Magdad!

Thanks Big Vic!

[@dianemoore2945]

Another great job. That a is a slick touch you did with the blue stuff next to the polished surface, nice. Makes me want to go polish my pliers! Tell Chuck he works too hard, polishing al those little grip lines!😂

[@357magdad]

Thanks Diane! Chuck loves to polish!

[@ivanstiles7030]

Very nice Magdad. Another old tool saved from certain meltdown at the scrap yard. Very respectful restoration sir. Nice work

[@357magdad]

Thanks! I use these all the time!

[@shedmanx3640]

A great restoration mate. Nothing more satisfying than oozing gunk from the pivot point on a pair of pliers/cutters, etc.

[@357magdad]

Thanks Shed Man! Watching the liquid patina ooze out of the pivot is very satisfying!

[@ChickenLips412]

“Oozing Patina” is my new favorite heavy metal band name.

[@357magdad]

Next time I show the patina ooze, I'll have to have some heavy metal playing!

[@andyc972]

Those pliers came out great Magdad, loving the blued handles, I'm working on a real basket case pair at present that were my Grandfathers, I'd be delighted if they came out half that good ! Must get me some of that Evaporust !

What a drastic change, from junk to treasure. I like the bluing effect.

357 magdad you did a fantastic job on those needle nose pliers!!!

Thanks Kris!

I like the look of just the sanding belts In the last Ad picture there is a small signal lantern I have one hanging in my shed

[@357magdad]

The pliers looked pretty good after the 120 grit belt!

That came out stellar!

Hi Magdad , Nice Job 👍 As Usual . It's Funny I Just Got A Pair of Needle Nose Pliers Myself . A Klein 310-6C . No Longer in Production . Mine Were Rusted Shut Too. Paid A 1.00 at the Flea Market ! Restored.

[@357magdad]

Thanks Wayne! Nice job rescuing those Kleins!

[@805ROADKING]

Nicely done Bud!! I like the addition of the music, perfect selection and volume!! I'm sure the Mrs. had something to do with that!!☻

[@357magdad]

Thanks RoadKing! Mrs Magdad does a great job editing!

[@Brian-Burke]

Excellent job and the bluing really sets them off. "The oozing patina" line cracked me up.

[@357magdad]

Thanks Brian! Watching the liquid patina ooze out of the pivot is very satisfying!

[@joesteffens613]

What a great pair of pliers for a restoration like this. The jaws and cutter look unused. At a yard sale, most people would walk passed a rusty, seized up pair of needle nose like these and think they were junk. Your fiber wheel and conditioning belts made them look new again. You’ve proven over and over again that tools like this can be cleaned up and made to be “better than new”. Maybe that can be your new catch phrase. Thanks.

[@357magdad]

Thanks Joe! It is very satisfying bringing rusty junk back to life!

[@tonylenge424]

Very nice restoration and yes I enjoyed it. Thanks

[@357magdad]

Thanks Chuck!

[@rawbacon]

I had a brand new pair of Linesman Pliers that were shiny and new on the outside but "Patina" on the inside.......After a soak in WD-40 they work great, who would think that new pliers could be rusty on the inside and pristine on the outside.

[@357magdad]

I guess the manufacturer didn't lube them during assembly.

[@terryrogers1025]

Nice looking pair of needle nose pliers, look to be in great shape to boot. Thanks for the video sir.

[@ydocproductions5593]

That’s definitely a complete transformation! Those would’ve been destined for the scrap heap. Looks like they were used maybe once or twice and then tossed aside for years and years. They really look great and the blueing was a nice edition.

Those sure did come out great! I love the heat shrink idea on the wire brush. Excellent work. Cheers

[@357magdad]

Thanks Joe! The concentrated wires really get into the nooks and crannies!

[@ihrescue]

On display again the nice look of polished finish and blued finish on some tools. I do like your approach to not wasting the Evaporust when a quick knock off with the wire wheel can get so much of it off. Reduces your costs. So many tools to rescue, so little time.

Thanks Michael! I like to save on the magic juice!

Excellent job, I love the ones with interesting handles.

[@357magdad]

The handle design was one of the reasons they came home with me!

[@johnfix1]

Very nice restoration. I like how the blued handles improved the finished look. I have a Flitz question. My jar has turned into a complete liquid. I have to stir to combine ingredients each time I use it but it remains runny. Is this normal? My tubes never did this as they remain a paste.

[@357magdad]

Thanks John! My jar has done the same thing! I have to mix it like paint every time I use it. It seems to still work well though.

[@gromeca1]

After a tool has been de-rusted, what is the best thing to put on the bare metal to prevent future rust. I’ve tried clear spray lacquer, dulls the finish. Tried WD-40, doesn’t last. What do you use? Great channel, outstanding work.

[@357magdad]

Thanks for watching! If I'm going to store or display the project I give it several coats of paste wax. If the tool is going to be a user, I soak it in oil or CLP and wipe it down.

[@GuntersGarage]

They came out great! Well done, love the finish :)

[@357magdad]

Thanks!

[@Dalesworkshop]

Tell me more about the fiber wheel, do you prefer it over the cloth polishing wheel? Great job on the pliers.

[@357magdad]

Joe's Shop introduced us all to the fiber wheel. I wouldn't say it replaces polishing, but it can give a decent finish. I've got a video review: kzbin.info/www/bejne/gHjShXt9jbR9q7s

[@johnmclaurin]

Love the final bluing…don’t think the previous owner ever used those pliers…the little curved area right under the pivot joint always gives me problems, nice to know about the belts you use….fun video!

[@357magdad]

Thanks John! I've also had good results with the edge of the fiber wheel on those curved areas.
