I can understand since you collect ceiling fans, that you would probably always prefer them in their original state. I thought it was very pretty too! That’s why I didn’t want to get rid of it. I just gave it a makeover because I wanted it to match my decor better. I never knew anyone one who collected ceiling fans. Very interesting! If I had known you, I would have given it to you to add to your collection and just bought a new one! Happy collecting! Thanks for watching!
This video really helped me a lot in refinishing my old flush mount ceiling fan - thank you for this! Although I’ve run into a problem: the mesh grille filter tore apart when I tried to remove it from the housing case. My ceiling fan is pretty old, probably from the 80s or 90s. The filter seems to be made of a flimsy mesh material. I cannot find anything online about what kind of material/filter is used in ceiling fans so I can replace it. It seems like you removed yours fairly easily, stiffer than the mesh fabric that just crumbled apart in my hands. Do you have an idea of what the filter in your fan is made of?
Thank you so much for watching! I’m so glad the video was a help to you! So sorry to hear that your filter tore though!😕 I’m sorry to say that I don’t know what those filters are made of. I wonder if you might be able to get one off of a broken fan that someone was throwing out.??? I go to a lot of garage sales, thrift stores, and Habitat for Humanity stores. It’s amazing the kinds of things that you can find! Hope this helps!🙏🏼
@@HomeAgainTerrieThank you, that is helpful advice! I asked around and some people suggested landscape material or window screen… not sure I trust those, because I’m sure there must be a certain level of air flow and heat resistance needed. One person suggested that it’s purely cosmetic and nothing is needed at all, but I don’t feel comfortable with the motor being exposed to dust and gunk. I ended up buying a heat resistant filter from Amazon used for computer vent dust filtration… it’s cuttable, a bit stiff, but works pretty well so far (for anyone reading this that may come across the same issue)! Happy refinishing!
A great way to save some $ and repurpose a good ceiling fan - well done! Looks like wood grain blades now for sure - Thank you!
