Desperate Restoration of an Old Oil Lamp: Will I Succeed?

#restoration #oillamp
In this video, I restore an old oil lamp I found at a flea market. The lamp is in terrible condition: rusty, stuck, and poorly painted over the rust. Despite all this, I decided not to throw it away and try to give it a new life. I dismantle the pieces, clean the glass, and remove the paint using specific products. Afterward, I apply a rust remover and proceed with painting, choosing white for a shabby chic look. In the end, I get the idea to use a candle instead of oil and place it at my home's entrance, where it looks great. Follow me through the process and let me know what you think in the comments!

Maybe film with a better camera?

Hi! I actually used a GoPro for these shots, but even with the best settings, it wasn't ideal for filming this type of scene. The lack of focus and light control options didn't help. I probably should have used my phone, which would have done a better job. However, I didn't want to waste the footage I had already captured, so I decided to share it anyway. I hope you still enjoy it. Thanks

@@fatmirmarku I just think you have a talent working with your hands and your videos will have more views if you used proper equipment. Maybe you could get some decent second-hand cameras if you are serious about your channel?
