This was exactly what I came to see. “Regular” people restoration. No sand/bead blaster, no painting booth and kiln, the kind of thing almost any of us can do. Thank you for this!
@@gregbonifay it's only new once....he took out enough dents to make it functionally open and close better. It's really not worth the effort to do more on these old thin gauge toolboxes. They will dent just being dropped or something dropped on them in a second.
When I buy second hand tools I ask the seller if they know the history, even on eBay. I have tools that belonged to the seller's father’s and a couple of times they’ve been craftsmen. It’s good to be able to assure them the tools will be respected and looked after. I wonder what the story of this tool box was? Whatever it was you certainly did it justice.
A big part of me doing old tools up is the respect for the history of them and a pride of continue this by using them, plus my OCD gets the better of me lol
I was looking for ways to remove rust from an old steamer trunk any products that would stop the rust from eating it but keep the patina and I can’t take it apart
Nice restoration work but the video would be way more entertaining if it was edited and a lot shorter. And a lot more useful if you explained what you were doing.

Tool boxes like that are not as easy as you would think. The nice new paint can bring out all the hard to remove body damage. Top effort with this!
Real nice work of the hard ware, allen screws, paint job. Sick man SICK !!!!!
Absolutely beautiful! Amazing job bro
Super job. Just looks super! Love the color! Thanks for the video.
Excellent. A practical fix and restoration.
I might have pop riveted the hardware back on
good job looks great
thanks, that kind of rivets were not found
Good restoration, you spent more on replacement hardware than the box
Tore it all the way down and didn't take out the dents???

you did great restoration, I really like the result 👍
I must admit I liked the old patina look before painting but I am lazy and cheap. Good job BTW
We find treasure like this all the time!!! We use acid on rust. Great educational video.
Good job it looks good
Good Work
nice colour choice
There are so many sexy colors for a toolbox, thank god you went with old folks home.
As soon as I saw the "before" I fell in love with it. The result is a restoration work of art.
Way cool. The hex head screws were a frikkin great touch! 2 thumbs up.
Can you tell me what you poured on when removing the paint

Мне понравилось видео по восстановлению.
Привет из Сибири, Россия.

That looks terrific
Please can you mention the things you used to clean

Pleas can you mention the things u used in your description.
What’s the name of this paint ?
Great Job!
thanks
What chemicals did you use to soak the pieces in?
Probably white vinegar
@@davemclover81 Probably a salt water solution as he's using electrolysis to remove the rust.
This looks amazing, about how long would you say this project took to complete start to finish?
13:27 apparently
I actually like that color.
Me too! If only we knew what it was, right? :(
I think it's Paris Green
BOOM! From nasty to ooh la la! ❤️🙌
Great restoration video! I really like the color of the "new" tool box 👍🏼
Well Done! I like the color! Subscribed! T-Wrecks
Many thanks for the great video :) What spray did you use on the box parts between wire brushing and painting?
Good for another 50 years
What was that rust liquid he used
I want to know the same thing. What that process was. What power supply was used and the type of chemical used
A Great improvement, nice job!!
Güzel bir işçilik oldu dostum. Zımpara işi biraz yorucu oldu ama tebrikler.
thanks
Back up the camera a little. Damn
Very good restoration bro 👍👍👍👍
It looks ready for another few decades of work.
Nice restoration work but the video would be way more entertaining if it was edited and a lot shorter. And a lot more useful if you explained what you were doing.
My grandfather had tool boxes 30's, 40's, 50's... heartbroken I didn't ask him for one...
I'd have gone with different screws......
Kerry - I can’t wait to see your next restoration video.
Aw man the new hardware really takes away from what would’ve been a top notch restoration. Get some pop rivets man!!!
I guess you never heard of pop rivets? With a cheap thin gauge metal like that, I guess that is the best one can expect.
In mexico isn´t possible. i´am sorry, the rivet pop quality is bad
That box is so dented ... Ugh
Good job right up to the point you picked the fugliest color in the solar system.
Just painted a dented box
It's still covered in dents.
Hello! DeWalt number?
Hello! this brand is not mentioned in this video
👎снято и показано не красиво и не интересно.
Not even going to straighten out the metal? Downvote.
What type of primer do you use under the enamel?
