    Hi Everyone and Welcome to Promethean Sewing Machines, where I am unashamedly rebelliously creative when it comes to taking old forgotten sewing machines and bringing them back to life in a beautiful way.
    Meet my new project:
    This is the second part in my series on restoring this machine. Previously I removed her parts and now I'll walk you through my steps from paint removal to top coat. Hope you like it!
    ~Marie

    After watching this video, I'm going to repaint a singer 112w. Depending on the out come I will do a 151 and a 143. You made it look easy, but anything that looks easy, I have 9 industrial machines the but the three I mentioned, I would like to restore them as new

    I found this episode so encouraging. I have an old treadle machine out in the garage that I got our of my mother's barn that is so rusted. I didn't know what to do with her but now I'm going to try painting her as you have done. Great show. Looking forward to the next.

    Lots of work to do on this one. I hope you’re initially wearing a mask & getting plenty of fresh air in your work area if the chemicals have strong fumes. 😉 Lotsa parts in the bobbin winder assembly! You must really love doing these projects. 😊She’ll look great when you’re finished, no matter the color you choose.

      It's like a big crazy puzzle 😂 most things I do don't have fumes, but I make sure it's ventilated. I think the worst is while I'm cleaning really dirty parts, I get that black powder everywhere. In my ears... All good though 😁

    Question, how many cans of paint do you use to completely finish the paint job, is it one enough or I need to consider more than one can, because you’re giving me the courage to try to repaint the family’s old sewing machine, my grandpa taught me how to get it serviced and mechanically speaking is running smooth it’s just how it has change through time and at times mistreated that is a shame
    I would greatly appreciate all your advice, love your videos I’m a fan now ❤

    I cleaned and rebuilt my wife’s grandmothers treadle singer sewing . Got new leather to operate with treadle. Only thing cannot find are needles. The top of the needle is square not round. You know any source for those needles?

    Having tried multiple methods of removing paint from these machines, including this method, I can tell you that the easiest way to remove the shellac and the asphalt based paint Singer used to create their black color is electrolysis. Electrolysis is much easier than it sounds, it's literally just a bucket, chicken wire, and a battery charger, it blasts everything off right down to bare metal, it's really the only way to fly. I won't use any other method anymore, nothing came close to electrolysis.

    • @prometheansewingmachines
      @prometheansewingmachines  Год назад +1

      I'm going to try that on my next one! I'm guessing hooking a positive and negative to the chicken wire and wrapping it around the machine?

    May I suggest using Dolphin glaze UPO714. Glaze the whole machine. This stuff is real creamy,sands easy. Will save you hours in labor. It’s designed for pin holes.

      This product is made to go over pin holes in primer. A bit pricey. I use it to skim coat the bed and touch up elsewhere. RUclips has videos. Thanks Mike.

    I have a model 27 with same decals , yes there is alot more details in original but i also think it was all golds not a bronze , like shades of gold , this is probably becuase alif of the original stuff got lost over time or copyright infringement most likely...
