RARE Japanese Lighter Restoration - Sarome Blue Bird Rocket Car
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 4 มี.ค. 2020
- Rare lighter restoration of a very cute rocket car lighter from Japan. Today I restore and repair a Japanese Sarome vintage lighter from the sixties. I Will make it fully functional and beautiful again.
This Cigarette lighter is from the late sixties and comes from a Japanese lighter brand named Sarome. It’s modeled after the rocket car from the 60’s who set the world record in ground speed in Bonneville Utah. It’s a cool collector object and you can get this lighter in many different colors and wheel combinations. I got mine from a subscriber from the U.S.
RESTORATION PROCESS
I started by adding WD40 rust remover because I thought I could drag out the lighter insert from the body of the car, but I was wrong. I was built together. After I demounted the lighter, I used my mini tumbler to clean all the small parts. I also used Electrolysis to clean up some minor parts.
I chose to sandblast the whole lighter body and painted it with black and red colors. The lighter did only come with 3 wheels, so I decided to create 4 new Alu wheels.

You're australian right
Those damn birds are giving me deja vu
What are you Japanese
Electrolysis looks cool
Not just good restauration but also fotografy, montage... Rally good. Your measuring tool is made in Poland. Bet you are Slavic. :-) BTW, you really need air brush. ;-) Keep working man!
Great Video 👍💯
weird combination of lighter and toy car, a perfect gift for the young arsonist.
Lmao
Or a childish stoner
thats mad jokes lmao
Its a submarine with wheels if say 🤷🏼♂️
very lol, thank u sir..
Number of people who are thankful for the no music background
👇🏻
Wow, what an original commment! So clever and stinky
@@El_Andru it's hard to come up with good ideas when this guy keeps farting
12:07
The ambient nature sounds and occasional animal sounds were interesting though
@@JasonJia11 I thought that was just in my head
Even the little clicking and clanking noises are satisfying.
I liked 👍👍👍
I can’t be the only one who was driven crazy by the constant buzzing of a fly in the background of the video
yes ;)
Yup I came to complain that.
When?
I kept thinking it was in my house 😂
the sound of the storm outside, man that's relaxing
I prefer this over lame elevator music any day lol
I was laying here and I closed my eyes and just listened and I had an out of body experience lol it sounds like Kansas in the spring/fall.
Don't matter if its real or sound effects I love it
Mixed with the fly lol
What is the last music name
I want to see him rebuild my life.
Hang in there brother
Me tooo
Me 2
Arthur Collins you and me both lol
You can always start again !

I love when he writes” just adding a little squeeze of wd40. “. Lol Soaks it. 😀
BigstackD Casting often writing this too, but in his case, it's really little squeeze
Just a little squeeze..... * half a can later finally stops *
It’s a submarine. He had to submerge that thing for sure 😂
i love how there isnt any annoying music but instead relaxing ambient sounds that make this video extremly more fun and enjoyable to watch.
ngl it gives me a certain sense of dread
12:02 thats a how to basic song
Except for the annoying fly sound it was nice.
Subtle, just like we like it
the fly sound was VERY enjoyable
The sound of storm and crickets in the background is so calming...
Yes
Plot twist: it wasn't even raining, he just added rain sounds to make it sound more suspenseful 😂

Did you actually believe it was real or are you just being ironic?
I love watching the restorations you do! The transformations are amazing; but I also enjoy the humor you inject. Thank you for the mesmerizing and entertaining good time.
Glad you like them!
Dear diary: Day 16 on quarantine . Bored as hell. Watched restoration of a lighter on TH-cam that was rusty as hell. Made in Japan ,if I’m not mistaken . Called a Samoan or something like that. Would never do something like that myself but was satisfying as hell to watch .
Hi David - I'm glad I could entertain you just a little bit and hopefully your quarantine will be over very soon. Stay safe :)
Me too, as per your, every word.
Under LOCKDOWN, as to the, CORONA VIRUS, watched this video, to the last.
Loved it, ABSOLUTELY.
It's pure, restorative skill, knowledge, expertise.
I am truly, HIGHLY impressed.
Thinking: I wish I could do that.
It's like day 59 for me
Kind of wish he recreated the sea blue color of the original. That’s what gave it it’s childlike quality
Totally agree, the original color was beautiful
Agreed! The new color scheme is not in lign with the Art Deco art style of the lighter.
I wish he'd used that fancy lathe to carve out another white phenolic (plastic) wheel but it's his disturbing toy and not mine
Yes, we just lost WW2, let's make commemorative lighters. Who was the market for this?
Original color was awesome ! 🤩
It’s amazing how this man takes something as simple as an old beat up lighter, and brings it back in such a nice way.
Nice editing skills too.
thank you so much :)
It was the best! I'd love a cool lighter that's restorated? Are they Super expensive (especially from you! ) or maybe under 50? The Japanese lighter and the wheels are incredible!!!
Sarome are a pretty exclusive make, very sought after, especially anything with age!
My dad used to sell quite a lot of them when he ran a tobacconists before retiring.
E essa musiquinha no final? Hahaha. Caí de para-quedas nesse canal hoje e estou hipnotizada!!! A precisão em lidar com peças tão minúsculas, os materiais e as técnicas usadas, os sons das coisas como áudio, Ahhh nem sei O que me prende mais. Ah sei sim, o jato de areia é o melhor Hahah. Congratulations, you are the best!!!!
Sim haha escolhi o jato de areia durante o vídeo é muito prazeroso ver a sujeira sendo removida rs
Meteu um forrozim né?? Adorei
Botou um forrozinho no final .
Kkkk
It's nice video
sand blasting is kinda relaxing to watch, i dont know maybe its just me.
I can only imagine what it’s like to actually do it
Same bro
It's always the best part of restoration videos for me.
No, you’re not 😊
"adding a little squeeze of WD40"
One biblical flood later:
😂 what can I say, I like WD40
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@AwesomeRestorations if you can, try Marvel Oil and/or PB Blaster. Both work great. Kroil is another one.
Your "shot" of WD40 cracks me up everytime. Yeah we love our WD too!
I really like sand blasting,works like magic
Could this be any more cathartic?!?!? The satisfaction of watching the transition, the low rumble of thunder in the background, the light buzz of the tools, no talking. I just can’t get enough!!!
P.S. I also love the slow methodical way you do everything and show us what’s happening and what you are thinking. Best film production ever.
Glad you enjoy it! Thank you so much :)
Editor: How many nature sound effects you want?
Awesome Restorations: *Yes*
So annoying these sounds.
I’ll gladly take nature sounds over music!
stop watching because of it.
@@Mediocre-420 Yoooo that's crazy but.....
Nobody asked!
yah i could do with out nature sounds too. music during restore vids is also annoying.

Smells good foo
@@gorillachilla yesssss
Bro i thought that too
LMAO! Dont we all?
It's almost like that's the joke
I'm from Poland, I watch your program with a smile on my face, you are hilarious and professional at the same time
thank you so much :)
It’s addicting watching someone is is so talented at restoration bringing old relics back to like. Great job. I subbed.
Thanks 👍

The thunder in the background Is so calming.
It would be if it didn't have a fly sound every so often.
Nah, ish is annoying. Mute
True, but not that fly i could hear intermittently.
The background cicadas/grasshoppers/thunders really make the setting!
Oxi, do nada um forró
forró kkkkk
Sim! Kkkkkkk
pensei a mesma coisa manow kkk ate achei q tinha aberto um video do balian sem querer kkkk do nada cara
@@hiogeireno6132 eu também até olhei pra ter a certeza, achei que tinha começado um vídeo da Dinah kkkkkkkkkkkk
Converting old rusty things to new things is so satisfying
KING CORD you’re right!
Another ASMR level
God can do that to your life, if you hand it over and get out of the way.
Why was this the most calming thing I’ve ever watched
Thank you so much - Thanks for watching I really appreciate it 😉👍
Because porn addiction doesn't lead
you to calming videos, that's why.
Really? Hearing the fly flying was calming? 😝

Dude your videos are so entertaining to watch! Love your video production and how you never say a word ,just letting your skills do the talking🤘.I'm a Big zippo fan so I love all the lighter restorations but all are spectacular and you definitely have a new subscriber.
Glad you like them! thanks buddy :) I really appreciate it 😉

My grandpa was a old tool and dye man for GM a long time ago. He really would have liked your videos. Good stuff man.
Why was ur grandpa an old tool?
@@Kiko-px8hu lol nice.
Which plant?
@@stretcher a couple of them, but finished out at the one in Moraine OH. Then he did like 10 years as a union rep or steward. He was connected but not that connected because he was Irish.
@@stoneyitis_burnstrees Interesting story man. I asked because my grandfather worked 43 years in the Oshawa plant as a tool/die maker among other things.
The background soundtrack of rolling thunder, bleeting lambs, cawing crows, and buzzing flies definitely sets a mood.
glad you think so :)

Does anyone else get stupid stoned and watch Awesome Restorations for an hour?
sound of storm, thunder ⛈ & chirping crickets add more beauty to the videos
Never been this satisfied every since i saw woody get restored from toy story 2
Same, but now I wish there was you story music in the background
Good job, but I would suggest painting things back into its original color when doing a restoration, it kinda preserves the thing's "identity"
Agreed
Same here.
Yeah the red and black looks nice, but something about that blue from before fit the piece much better in my opinion
And it wasn't just a simple blue colour.
That's the art of restoration. Removing the rust and stuff is one thing, but matching the original colour is a whole other thing much more precise.
I agree with others. Staying as close to original as possible retains the objects "life" and "personality". If only these objects could talk, I wonder what they've seen and witnessed.
That turned out really nice. It's amazing to me how you take it completely apart if every little tiny bit comes out and gets cleaned and then you remember how to put it all back together again... Much respect sir! Very well done, I really enjoy your videos.
Thank you so much 😊
@@AwesomeRestorations You are most welcome. 😊
Take notes, photos and video during the disassembly.
If there are lots of parts, label them.
What a great talent you have. I'm an artist and I love to watch others work with their hands.
thank you :)
There's an occasional fly sound from the pile of dismembered bodies piled up in the corner that we never see.
He's too clean and tidy for that mess
I keep searching for that fly!( i assumed at first that it was something in my room)
My fav was the sound of the thunder.. We don't really have thunder where I come from. Miss it deeply...
Imagine someone lighting their cigarette in some back alley at night with a 𝘵𝘰𝘺 𝘤𝘢𝘳
I would do that lol
That's gangsta!
プレイヤーは今日です😬
Yeah, i did it. Not this lighter exactly, but i've had some toy car-lighter. Sadly lost it in russian subway.
I love your video descriptions and how you research stuff now. I don’t see many doing that and they restore military stuff improperly. Thank you for doing that. I also love the ambience noises. They’re wonderful and relaxing. It makes watching you work rewarding and an escape. I also love your attitude and personality I’m your vids. It’s fun.
thank you so much for your kind words I really appreciate it :)
The storm in the background makes this that much better.
Caliper made in Poland? Nice. The nature sound effects reminded me childhood and really helped me relax. Mixing those sounds with professionally edited restoration video = pure bliss
Thanks for watching and for your kind words I really appreciate it 😉👍
Yessssss!
I found the sound of thunder in the background sensational, very relaxing.
Thiago Hb 1910 1984 Me too😴
Yes loved it too so relaxing
There is a chance that we will get addicted to your videos
LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the background sounds. So soothing. 💕
Love your technique.
Thank you! Cheers!

Your videos are a fantastic low-key marketing bonus for WD40.
Glad you think so!
The rain is so satisfyingly peaceful 🌧😌
glad yoy think so
こういうところで日本の名前が出てくるとちょっと嬉しい
It is a little glad when the name of Japan comes out in such a place
きつね (あっ日本人)

Using Japanese lighter with care makes me happy.

@@AwesomeRestorations do you have any videos restoring World War 1 or World War II items
nope,just you
perfect time for it
地道で繊細な作業で最後まで見てしまった
すごい！
Wonderful and amazing restoration work and I actually did choose sandblasting, I think it’s because I’ve watched so much of your restoration videos I knew exactly what you were going to do or know the best way to get the job done by videos. 👍 great job!
Awesome! Thank you!

Dude the electrolysis you showed in the video is the BEST demonstration among all videos on youtube......
Glad I found this channel......
Beautiful ❤️
so glad you think that :) thanks a lot for watching
I actually chose electrolysis because that was really satisfying to see.
Adding a *"little"* squeeze of WD40
This is why I have trust issues
Just the tip?

Love how it's storming in the back ground
glad you like it :)
Talk about craftsmanship! Great restoration!
thank you so much :)
Watching this has motivated me to practice patience in tedious tasks.

I’m always routing for sandblasting haha! Awesome 😉 video and great work man, I’ve binged nearly all of your videos now in no particular order
Awesome! Thank you!
Вот что значит у людей руки из правильного места растут !
Also, great theatrical movements! Pure and wonderful theater……
見たこともない道具や薬剤を使って、みるみるうちに以前の姿を美しい取り戻す…まるで魔法のようでした。素晴らしかったです。
私が生まれる前の日本に、こんな可愛らしいライターがあったなんて…！綺麗にして頂いてありがとうございました😊
Anyone remember the King of the Hill episode where Hank can’t open his WD-40 can so he busts out his smaller backup can of WD-40 to loosen it up?...classic.
Good times bro. Good times 👍
i was actually thinking of that when he pulled out the WD-40
yup 😁😁😁
Not as good as the episode Hank turned Bobby into a nicotine fiend.
😂😂😂😂
I’ll never look at a lighter the same way again.
Rocky Hernandez you can smell the WD-40 before the fuel
I love your Restorations it's so neat to see you take apart clean repair and then put it back together can see myself doing that I forget where all the pieces were thanks for showing it you're talented
thanks so much I really appreciate it :)
Extremely satisfying and worth the time to watch. Professionalism at its finest. Sand blasted because of the finer more delicate material.
thank you so much :)
"little spray of WD 40"
*dopes the whole thing with the lubricant*
the thing is pretty small though
WD-40 is actually not a lubricant. It's an oil cleanser. After cleaning a hinge with WD-40, you should oil it.
There is anyone else feeling satisfied with this kind of show's 😅
I'm
true !!
The thunderstorm in the background makes this feel like asmr... nice and relaxing😌
Glad you like it!
Great work, as usual!🤟 I'll be seeing more of these videos!😁
thanks a lot
I like how several decades of rust is blasted or rubbed out, then has no flaws and is made to look new again.
Thank you for your "drill sanding" technology.
Yeh me too was really innovative, classy, n real effective 👌👏👏👏
Love the humorism childish bent on this creative flavour of transformation. The mixture of chemisty, metals & mechanics is like beast mode. The pure interactive sounds, with the surprise victorious trombone (?) ending, was like nostalgia ... made me laugh. The brain behind the video editing & the story telling deserves an award. Satisfying to watch from start to finish. Love it! 💥💯🏆💯💥
thank you so much for your kind words :)
Always choose sandblast. So satisfying
it really is :)
The quality of your videos is insane!
How many agles do you want?
This guy: Yes.
