Now you have an awesome throwback Super Soaker! Thanks for an amazing example of simple body working tools, and your incredible skill using them! That is DEFINETLY not an easy thing to bring back to life! Great work brother!
Beautiful!! Brought back memories of my grandmother spraying flies around her kitchen door. I also remember watching an old man paint a car with lacquer paint in one of these sprayers when I was about 6 yrs old. That was when cars had enough metal that you could repair dents with a hammer and files, no body filler in those days! Yep I'm that old!
I've noticed with that hammered paint I don't get the two tones unless I lay down a base coat and then hit it semi thick. I think the tone is actually created by something in the solvent that flashes to give it that effect.
@@TheGoodoftheLand I've had a few second coats cause wrinkling and cause me to strip it back down when I use Rustoleum. I think they changed their solvent because I used to be pretty careless about secondary coats and now if I miss that hour recoat window I have to wait 72 hours for it to cure before I got it again.
I dig how at the end you came in and gave some commentary, other restoration channels I watch have never done that and I never knew I wanted it till now.
Nice...it's a sin to find something like this and NOT bring it back to it's former glory! So if I find something like this I'll send it to you and that'll be my part in the process!
Thanks for the info on the Evapo Rust. I'll be using it on some small engine fuel tanks in the near future. You might want to use a Wabash flux on the solder areas. I do and it works great.
Nice work! I know others have said that they don't like talking during the restos. I, on the other hand would really like to hear you talk through things and why you do what you are doing at that stage. Just my .02!
WOW! Would never have believed those parts would clean up like that! Used one of these many more times than I'd like to remember! Never thought about the fact they soldered together. Love the wooden end cap.
Fun fact, the first atomizer was created by Allan DeVilbiss (yes, the same one) in 1887 and was used for spraying medicine in peoples nose and throats. In 1890 the DeVilbiss Mfg Co. was born.
Very impressive! I thought it WAS impossible, and would've given up. But you showed that with time, effort, love, and skill, it COULD be done! Once again, VERY impressive! You've got a new subscriber!
Outstanding Justin, good to see those PDR skills being put to work!! I have fond memories of my late Grandmother spraying flies with one of those 👍👍🇦🇺..
Thank you 🙇 thank you 🙇 when you first brought it out, I was a bit sceptical if it is the one for Mosquitoes or it is the type my late Dad used to use to spray his turning furniture works. Despite being in my 60s I was a bit confused at the beginning. I am from a Tropical climate of Africa and I should be able to get it at the initial stage. You did a great job and how I wish I could touch it because that thing is now vintage scarce. I appreciate your work.
Buckets of perserverance / very surprised that you went ahead with this / first time viewer of your videos have subscribed / you obviously like a challenge and it makes it far more interesting because of this. I find this v relaxing to watch too / no talking is a massive plus.
Wow. What a challenge and what gumption to see that restoration through. I'm afraid I would have just pitched it in the trash. Good job! Many thumbs up.
I love the old school hammering to make that part. I am a metal worker at heart, can't do it anymore due to arthritis. Just wondering why you didn't use flux, yes, I seen it was flux core, but it doesn't always work. Very nice work, someone will be interested that collects old sprayers or some category it would fall into that they collect.
Nice little restoration! I'd have touched that thing with a welder and blew a hole in it the size of my fist. I really need to figure out how to weld one of these days. Evaporust is awesome stuff. My younger brother has used it to restore and refurbish pieces on some of his projects.
The work you do is truly amazing. To think the first thing I saw you restore was an axe. Now you're restoring things that most of the world would throw away as a lost cause. Great restoration. :)
That looks like the same model used in The Wizard of Oz (1939). I made a replica prop of that sprayer a few years ago. I spent months looking for that model but gave up and made the whole thing from scratch. In the movie the Lion carries it in the haunted forest. It's the same silver color (with added red stripes) and says "WITCH REMOVER" on the side.
We used to use these in our milking barn back in the early sixties to keep the flies down. We’d spray all around the windows and doors etc. Have no idea what the chemical was…..never thought about it back then. Hey, in those days if us kids got poison ivy we’d go out to the barn, grab a piece of bailing twine and dip it in the can of lye we used to disinfect the milkers and drip it on the rash. Stung like hell but stopped the rash!
I was concerned since I knew that sprayer from the farm as a childrens..used it to spray the live stock in the summer for critters..it turned out pretty darn magnific, Liked the re-soldering part as galvanized don't solder worth a diddlie squatt but ya made it worked..Nice job fur sure on the decals too'
Just a helpful tip when welding thin metal i used a pice of alu. Behind to take some of the heat from the hole tac a little at time it works. Nice job!!!
For modelling kits you can use decal softener. Tamiya and others make it. Should work for those waterslide decals too. Makes it look like all the letters were put on individually so you don't see the edges where you cut the decals. Clear coat after. Anyways, nice vid. :-)
Two things. Thank you for using leaded solder on this restoration. Secondly, that being said, invest in some paste flux. Had you used it on the areas when you were putting it back together, it would have made your job so much easier. The flux in the solder is not sufficient to do what you were trying to do. Also, when attaching something like the fill collar, if you make a ring of solder and place it inside, and then heat from the outside, you can get a much better seal. You could also have used this way to mount the sprayer to the tank. When you use this method, you can clamp the parts together tightly, and after the solder cools, they are easier to finish, and you also get a much better joint. Otherwise, it was a nice restoration. Oh, I forgot to mention, if you need to take dents out of a cylinder, if you find a ball bearing or a wooden ball etc that fits snugly inside the tube, if you force it through, it not only removes the dents, but also rounds an out-of-round cylinder. Thank you for the video.
What we used to call in the UK a "flit" gun, I remember my father having one of these and he would prance around the place aiming the thing at flies until one day he got so involved he ended up spraying me mum in the face with it and it was gone quicker than anything.
Quick Henry, the Flit! I'm 82. You wouldn't know that commercial. Great restoration. Thank you.

Lots of people here in the comments seem to have fond memories of these things, good job
Looks awsome
Great job my friend. It's so nice to see a skilled craftsman at work. My late grandfather was the same, he could make anything. Regards. Paul.
Beautiful job! You are very skilled and you can be proud of yourself and what you do. Thanks for sharing!!
Unbelievable patience and hard work, wonderful work with high quality, M ur fan !!
Something really satisfying about watching a craftsman doing some good old school metal working. Fabing that cone was good to watch.
Crazy belief. Best restoration I've seen so far....
I've noticed with that hammered paint I don't get the two tones unless I lay down a base coat and then hit it semi thick. I think the tone is actually created by something in the solvent that flashes to give it that effect.
+NGinuity I have found that as well. It needs to flow. However, I have had a ton of problems with Rustoleum lately.

Hi must say that was very professional job . Loved every minute of it you have done a fantastic job. 👍🏻😎👍🏻🇬🇧
+Alan Garner Thanks Alan!

Amazing craftsmanship man good job

+Shadon HKW That is so cool!
You'all are real good!!
Good job. Just enjoyed watching this. 👍👍👍👍
My mother used one of these to spray her vegetable garden. That was quite a few years ago.
Very impressive! I thought it WAS impossible, and would've given up. But you showed that with time, effort, love, and skill, it COULD be done! Once again, VERY impressive! You've got a new subscriber!
Super cool great skill
New sub here from the Philippines! Awesome restoration bro'! The Before & After was definitely satisfying!
Nice restore Justin.

It's a very nice restoration. i like it.
Excellent job.
looks great.. well done..tks for the share...
Great great work love from India 👍
For all you learned. It's a great job. Love it.

The decals are a nice addition. Nice job on the restoration!
Bravo

Dostum, gerçekten sabır isteyen bir çalışmaydı ve sonuç harika oldu. Tebrikler.
Wow.
What a challenge and what gumption to see that restoration through.
I'm afraid I would have just pitched it in the trash.
Good job!
Many thumbs up.
if you use flux, it will be a whole lot easier.. prepare surface, add some flux to it and then heat / add solder.. voila. it will flow much better.
No flux given apparently...
@@chaosreigns7386 I laughed out loud when i seen your comment 🤣
Pretty sure he’s using rosin core solder, that’s why it smokes.
@@bradthayer6782 Yea, i forgot about that one.. yes it could be.
@@bradthayer6782 it was acid core (made in Mexico... they have the best acid dontca' know)
Unbilievable !! Great Work Mister

+DragonSlayer_69 Glad you liked it. Didn't use flux because I had no idea what I was doing😂. It somehow worked out. Thank brother
Todo lo que reparas, queda Genial. Saludos desde Barcelona Catalonia.
You should have put ACME on it. Yes I'm a Looney Toons fan.
ACME stuff wouldn't be quality enough to be able to restore, Coyote was too cheap!
This is an Evaporust presentation
Raid was the champ back then and that pump was every grade schooler nightmare.
Stephen Lacher acme meant and means ; the pinnacle, the best. That’s the joke
HAHAHA good one!!!🤣🤣🤣 looney tunes.
Amazing job
Outstanding! Something different.
excelente trabajo.. quedó como nuevo
Woow..Excellent restoration,Congrats.
that hand made part is gorgeous
Excellent Restoration, BRAVO👏
Use a copper backing when trying to weld a hole closed on sheet metal. They sell little "paddles" with a curved copper plate on it to use for this.
I’m impressed by your skill and talent!
Great job!
These are usually made from tin.Hard to weld.Top job , it looks like it just came off the cupboard at my grandmothers place.
Very impressive work. Well done
Excelente trabajo !!

“This thing probably never should have been restored” Blasphemy! Lol. I was thinking the same thing. That was an impressive display of skills. 👍🏼
Competência e amor, pelo que faz. Parabéns você honra a inteligência!
Great work man awesome
You did good 👍 bro!
Nice job, didn't think you would make it but you pulled it off again.
Metal master. Great job
Awesome! Your bodywork skills are shining through 😎
What's almost as good as shot blasting? Evaporust! I also love your process of disassembling as much as the rebuilding!
Your a skillfull man well done a true craftsman
Well done great job
¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡Impresionante...!!!!!! Saludos desde Honduras. 👍👍👍👍👏👏👏👏👏💪💪💪💪
A real tin bender! Outstanding
Wow I am in pest control and I am amazed that you pulled it off.
What a great job with the sheet metal work. Tony, Australia.
I love restoration job

Definitely got your work cut out for you on this one. AMAZING how it turned out!

That was really difficult. Now you are officially The lord or the rust.
You sir have earned a sub from your outstanding restoration.
Really great restoration, turned out beautiful.
This is like a classic cartoon prop cool thing
Nice work.
Dam good job!!!!
Just a helpful tip when welding thin metal i used a pice of alu. Behind to take some of the heat from the hole tac a little at time it works. Nice job!!!
Never thought in a million yrs that would come out looking that good well done

Thank you for the video.
One word … amazing! Greetings from germany!
