- This is the second in a series of videos from The Ministry Of Temporal Mechanics. My videos involve time traveling through close contact and restoration of vintage and antique objects. I learn so much with each endeavor and hope you might get something out of the experience as well. Make comments. Ask questions. I'm always open to suggestions and any additional information you might have to offer. Let's inspire each other to create.- Rob Niosi

I like the trick with acetone and cardboard! Nice!
Great!
Thank you for the paint trick!
Beautiful work!
Beautiful finish... Looks as good as new
I've used hair dryer to heat up ring to be able to screw the glass front off.
Great suggestion
Wondering if you've found anyways to restore the Springfield and similar design humidity gauges? Wondering if there is some sort of standardized solution mix where dipping and drying maybe in some way might be a way? Great work!
Amazing restoration! Do you have any suggestions on how to restore steam gauges with painted faces?
I have an older 6 inch diameter pressure gauge with a broken lens. The bezel is soldered to the body of the gauge. How can I remove the bezel to replace lens? thanks for the tip on renewing the dial numbers.
Hey, I know that guy! How’s the Time Machine doing?
Looking to restore a brass Aston 291-A GAUGE FOR A Soo steam enginge generator 1909
Where was this video when I was learning how to do this? I've messed up more gauges than I care to admit. I like the acetone on cardboard trick. I will definitely be doing that in the future. I have been gently abrading the surface to remove excess surface paint, but I haven't been happy with how easy it is to either ruin the finish or else ruin the paint job. What do you do in cases there the etching is essentially a negative, that is, when the features are raised and everything else is in-painted? You see this a lot, for example, on the metal badges of wood box style meters.
I am much more interested in finding a way to reproduce scales on gauge faces for which the original screen printed scale has been damaged or deteriorated, because that is far more common for the devices I restore. I don't want to do screen printing for a variety of reasons, but I do have access to a laser cutter. I've experimented with several techniques without success.
Would black nailpolish work?
Sorry, I am having a medical issues. The only nail polish probably be gloss instead of flat. I have not done that before
is there any possibility to contact you by e-mail? I need your help! Thank You!
