Omg! Your gifting it back to me???
Yes! Tommorow I will deliver it to you!👍🏻
@@CoolRestorations that is totally awesome that is something that I'm sure she will cherish that is truly amazing that you do this stuff for people
Wonderful! I will be home all day!! I can hardly wait to see it! We just got a gas stove and it will add the perfect splash of color to it!!!
Lucky lady, how’s that teapot?

Very cool, I personally would have seasoned the hole kettle instead of painting it. I a much bigger fan of the seasoned look.
For sure! But this was more of a experimental project :)
I WILL HAVE A DUTCH OVEN RESTORATION SOON :-)
This is why cast iron is the best. It can almost always be brought back to a completely functional piece.
Yes!
I love cast iron. Your patience and thorough efforts cleaning the humidifier were awesome. I definitely would have preferred to keep the original patina, without the paint, so that it could be used again.
Thank you :-) Yes thats a very popular opinion, maybe next time :-)
Very cool. I used this tutorial to restore the same model for my wife’s birthday. Thanks!!!
Awesome! This restoration was more of a showcase piece not for actual use :)
I would have seasoned the whole thing because seasoned metal looks better in my opinion but it looked amazingly done
Yes, you are probably right! Thank you:)
Love that color combo
Lots of work...turned out great
Thank you!👍🏻
Very cool project don't see many of these anyone nice job !! Congrats to the winner such a awesome win Thank you for the opportunity ✌️
Thank you so much!👍🏻
Great work! 👍🏼 Love how it turned out!
Thank you!😍😍😍
Amazing your skill and patience. Beautiful job!
Thank you so much!❤🛠
Turned out amazing!
Thank you!👍🏻
That is a fireside humidifier not a teapot.
Is it? Whats the use for it?
@@CoolRestorations You set it on a old wood-burning stove or in front of a fireplace. Fill it with water and the heat of the fire will cause the the water to evaporate and humidify the room. Mainly people who don't want a bunch of electronic stuff use them today or off-grid people. The one on amazon in the link below is really similar to the one you restored.

@@scottymcm Wow, thats awesome!👍🏼
Humidifier These are for sitting on your wood stove to keep moisture in the air and they will always rust out. they are not for heating water for consumption- bad bad! you should rename your video.
Awesome job I'm from Plymouth Maine USA
The Tonka giveaway has now ended. ❤
Winner was #65
Thank you!
Looks great! Keep up the work!
Thank you!👐
Good job!👍 Looks very cool!
Thank you!!!)
Wow, that was a lot of work.
Yes, it was 😃
Very cool restoration, and I absolutely love the color green you painted it. Now that it's painted though, can it be used? Is it a heat resistant paint?
Thank you! when I brought it back to original ower I told the husband that I would recomment keeping it just for looks (as a collectible)
Because Im not sure the paint can take all that heat. When I was buying it, the lady said it reminded her of her grandma❤
0:33 mmmmmm chocolate milk😂
Hahaha, yes! Yummy😃
Thanks for your videos 👍
Glad you like them! Hello to Utah!
@@CoolRestorations Utah needs people like you 👍
@@dmitriygroz9285 😍😍😍😍😍😍
Very nice video, crystal clear on the process which is very nice. If you wanted to keep it the original cast iron finish is there a product you could clear coat it with?
Great question!! I’m going to try this with my kettle.
What kind of paint did you use that can be put on stove burner? I have one of these exact kettles and would love to paint it if I can still use it on stove
I spray mine pink and the handle gold 😊
WOW!!!
I have 2 but 1 needs the scribing!😊❤
Originality never come
How should I do it next time?:)
What did you use inside the spout to get the rust out and to grind it down? (Or did you have to grind it down?)
I’m trying to do mine - which I unfortunately forgot to season before using the first time (despite the online warnings) - it’s insanely rough on the inside (the finish I mean) and trying to get the rust out of the spout is causing me the most problems… if I can achieve that I can season it properly and start humidifying my place with it on the wood stove.
Cool!!
Who in the world would dislike this?? You’re simply awesome!
Thank you! You skeak the truth!😉😉
speak!😀
Wire wheeling a piece of cast iron is like refinishing a piece of antique furniture. You might personally prefer the new finish, but it is now worthless to collectors. Stripping rust by electrolysis or through weak chemicals is the way to go. Wheeling results in a polished, nonporous surface that seasoning can't adhere to.
So I have one of these and I love it but, it keeps rusting inside. Do I need to re-season it? Does that prevent it?
Maybe if you do many layers of seasoning it will rust less. It needs to be taken care of a lot.
Do you do this professionally? I have a tea pot I would love to have restored. That was amazing.
It was my first time, and apperently there are some things that professionalls dont suggest to do. 1. Is to put any paint on. 2. to avoid power tools. This was more of a show case project rather then something that will be used. Thank you, im still learning with every project that I do😊
All enamel coated cast iron is decor. It's paint in your food and water Everytime. They should never be used for cooking or heating anything. Period
@@jewedlaws4456 it's still perfectly safe to use as a humidifier though. And. you don't put the paint inside.
Thanks for the video! I have the exact same pot. Any idea the make and year of it? I am planning on doing a restoration of it as well.
Hello, not sure!:) Maybe from like the 1950?:)
Just don't spay paint it, this was more for show case :-)
@@CoolRestorations I don't know if I'd go that far, but it did look great! I can appreciate the effort and final results.
Why ruin this with paint? It would have been beautiful with a full restoration.
Its a show case restoration👍🏻 Thank you for watching ❤
It is a very nice pice😊
Thank you
So i have a cast iron tea pot that got (i guess) seasoned by some chocolaty tea. Now everything I make out of it tastes like chocolate. Is there anyway to 'reset' the teapot? Will that salt and lemon method work for returning my teapot to it's former glory? Thank you
All of work and sanding needs to be done. The paint was for show case.
Thats not seasoning.... Thats you not cleaning the pot.
Would you drink boiling water from it? i mean, i have exactly the same tea kettle but just for exhibition not for use.
No. Its accually a humidifier and this was just for showcase 👍
How did you season it and what did you use
Pro💯🔥👍🍻
Thank you!
NIce job.
Thanks mate!👍🏻▶️
Awesome Restoration!
Thank you!👍🏻
How did u clean the spout? What kind of paint was that? Did u use it immediatelyy after the seasoning? I found one like you have and just started cleaning it. Not real bad rust. Thanks
Paint is more for a showcase look! Not for use :-)
Was that a steel-bristle brush attachment on the makita drill?
I'm not sure what it's called but yes it's like a wire wheel brush 👍
I have the same one but the condition is better. I want to use it for tea. What good is it to paint it and put it on a shelf...can you use it for tea?
Hello, I think this can only be used a a humidifier. I just did it as an experiment, thank you for watching 👍🧐
I have 1
Thats awesome to hear!:-)
You are a handyman but don’t know Japanese iron pot culture. Only 2 part you need to fix. One is handle, a Japanese iron tea pot handle must standing, the second part is clean inside,you already done it. But never take off antique Japanese iron pot outside cover, it is very special material never come back again.Wash it with tea,it will shining again.Thanks for the video.
Thank you!
If the Japanese teapot is rusty will tea wash take away the rust? I have an old one, would like to be able to use, not just display.
@@dogbiscuit1171 Tea helps, but it won't wash away the rust completely. Boiling water several times and vinegar will also help. Until the boiling water no rust appears, no rust taste.
@@user-kv8oi2hx8x Thank you, will it take off the special coating if ketchup is left on awhile to clean the rust? How about wire brushes, too abrasive? I just saw something about a homemade electrolyte tub hooked up to an old battery charger, worth trying?
@@user-kv8oi2hx8x Great tip, thank you!
Do you know what matte paint is used on these originally?
I dont, sorry mate )
Nice job, but you should not have coated the inside, oxidisation protects the kettle on the inside, so you get all the benefits and none of the rust, Still, a very nice job.
What kind of grinder did you use? Also how did you clean the spout?
U used a drill.Whats spout?
I suppose what I am trying to ask is what type of attachment did you use on your drill, ie. what kind of grit? Also the spout is the narrow part where the liquid pours out.
What was on the drill?
It’s brush wire

Good job but bad colour choice at the end
Thank you!
As bad as that looks I’m amazed that the handle didn’t rust out so I know this is stage 😂😂😂
Handle is most likely nickel plated. The kettle had vinegar inside for long time that I put in it to soften the rust, I definitely over held it.
I'm a little confused, Are you supposed to add vinegar to the teapot to loosen the rust?
vinegar fights rust. just don't overdue it.
Из такого чайника я пить не стала бы ... Пусть он даже отремонтировал его ! Сразу краску на чугун ...мдаа , а где грунтовка ? Сразу видно это из азиатской страны ...
Чайник для красоты :-) Пожалуста покажите как надо👍🏻 Привет из Америке!😉
Not for use.show case only
Thank you!)
I was with you until you painted it. Looks great though
Did it more for looks, thank you!)
Sorry….you totally destroyed all of the Patina….now it looks like “Made in China”🙁
Possibly, but I was leaning and experimenting:-) Thank you for watching
Paint ruined this for me.
Sorry about that, did it for a bigger before and after effect👍🏻
why on earth would you PAINT cast iron? smh
OK, not quite what I was expecting from 'cast iron teapot restoration and seasoning'.... I thought this would be helpful for the 'average person' with an 'average' teapot.
Sorry, it was my first time doing it. Will do better next time. Thank you for your input 👍🏻
Shrek pot
😄 Yup!
