  • My mom used to have this 1977 Russian lamp on her bed desk, but later on it was put aside and forgotten. I decided to restore it in a way that it fits into modern room design.
    After dismantling, I cleaned the dust simply with water.
    For painted parts I used paint remover.
    I cleaned little bits that did not get removed with a wire brush.
    I sanded the surface and then covered it with a primer.
    After sanding the primer, I painted the parts with ice white paint.
    I sanded and covered plastic parts with wax.
    For metal parts, they were sanded as well and then polished.

    I have just discovered your channel and immediately subscribed! A superb job of that ‘70’s lamp. You executed it with so much diligence and care. I have a lot more videos to go through now, starting at the beginning! 🤗🇦🇺

      In those days, I never had these kinds of formulas. That MAAS copper cleaning solution and MASS metal protector. You know just how terrible it was during the entire 1970s. Even during the entire 1960s, the 1980s and the 1990s were the same thing. It's the entire 20th century, including the entire 2000s, which was also the same thing. There was also no MC51 rust remover. 👌

    Beautiful results! I like the light blue on the shade echoing the super cute blue button. And thumbs up for Patti Smith on the nightstand.

    Хорошая лампа, есть такая. Все замечательно, только держатель для патронов изогнут и не был выправлен, и соответственно патроны должны быть установлены в другую сторону, то есть лампочки должны "смотреть" друг на друга. А так все замечательно, буду знать как и чем в будущем отреставрировать свою. Спасибо.

    A job well done. The steel bar was probably nickel-plated, and if the coating is damaged it will be prone to rust. Nickel plating is not too difficult to do.
    It would be cool if you could save the old paper label and return it to the bottom.
    In any case, the job was done very well.

      I have already learned to nickel, I will definitely try next time.
      I wanted to save the label, but it was already too corrupted :(

    Hi Frind...
    Very Nice Restoration. From my Experience for over 30 Years, it's Better to use the Original Color just to keep the Original Look as much as possible for nostalgic reasons. For example, I Restored 3 Vintage Table Fans and Everybody was pleased with the Results.
    Thank You ... and God Bless

    Oh, what did I miss? I just didn't keep track like I was supposed to. I still just think about what I used to have. It's all about the previous table lamps I used to have. 🔦

    Nice restoration, the restored lamp looks beautiful . It is always interestg to see how simple in the former USSR things were constructed and build. Are the new bulbs LED's? Did you paint the inside of the lamps reflektor (Sorry don't know the correct english word) in which color?

    • @RetroRestoration
      @RetroRestoration  3 роки тому +2

      Thank you! Yes, the new bulbs are led's :) I painted the reflektor white, same as it was as original.
