      In case anyone isn't picking up on the obvious reason for the clearcoat to be white: If it was a clear powder, you wouldn't be able to determine your coverage very easily. With white, you can be sure you've got the clearcoat everywhere.

      @@spacewolfcub You can see how it works at the 1:49 mark. There are four holes for the ball to go through, all at different heights. The lowest one moves it one notch (10 points), while the highest moves the wheel four notches (40 points). The big wheel also has a piece of metal sticking out between the 90 and the 0, and that piece rotates the smaller wheel that marks 100 points. And it looks like to reset the points to 0, you just turn the wooden knob on the back enough times.

      Because if the paint is lead-based, you don't want to be breathing that in when you blast it off. The blasting process turns it into dust which would be easily inhaled. I realize the blasting cabinet is enclosed, but it's not totally sealed so there is potential for dust to escape.

    An amazing job as usual. Just out of curiosity: do you happen to have knowledge in filmmaking? Because the angles you use are fantastic and you always manage to get very clean and well-focused shots

    Amazing restoration and video, but what really catches my attention is the gorgeous mechanical score-keeping mechanism. My god, it's beautiful..

    The clear coat over the original graphics was genius. As I look at it, it still has a patina to it that is hard to preserve. That clear coat is a good clear coat. The washing it off helped tremendously too, but it wasn't too much to make it look cleaned, rather weathered over time. Excellent restore here. Most of the stuff was standard, but the preservation of the graphics and the wooden bits was absolute mastery here. A lesser craftsman would have done something else that didn't do the piece justice.

    There is just something so satisfying about watch the powder paint go from a dull Matt color to a glossy coat within seconds.

    The powder paint is my favorite part, watching it melt. Also the removal if the old paint

    The glossiness of the paint is so satisfying for some reason.
