Re: If you have 18 minutes to spare, this is pretty cool
Thanks Ken TD-A and Levent. I thought so too.
This guy's attention to detail even includes checking for lead paint (positive), so instead of heading for the sandblasting cabinet he first strips the paint sealing the lead rather than first sandblasting spreading it in a mist. I have seen that Orange Citris stripper, but never used it. I will have to check it out.
Powder coating parts, then off to the oven. Somehow he has found heat resistant masking tape to outline the trim. I would imagine a quite valuable friction powered push toy.
I have watched a few of his restoration videos along with some others. The internet.............click on somethoing of interest and your home page is flooded with the subject. Mostly a good thing, but sometimes a bother.
