  • I restore a very rare musical lighter. This vintage Aria lighter comes from Japan! To fix it I had to use a lot of rust removal, thank you PB Blaster, and a whole lot of polish. I pulled out my small hand tools to grab all the little springs and screws. I couldn't believe how many little screws it had.

      Austin Hughes,
      My first time also, & I must say I'm quite surprised by it!
      Judging from the identical font used for that lighter's brand name: "Aria." I'd venture to guess that this lighter was either manufactured by, or made in corroboration with; the Aria Musical Instrument Company.
      Can't say for sure of course, but I just have a hunch about it!

    Wow I never in a million years expected to find a video of this nature. I have an old Aria and the music doesn't work. It was my husband's and I found it in some of his things I was going through. I think it was over wound and needs a new flint. You are truly an artist. That was so well photographed and every step was beautifully demonstrated. Such a steady hand. I just loved watching this precise in motion. I don't think I can do this myself. I don't have the tools or the patience. I am 78. I was dying to know what the tune was. Fur Elise. Wow. I love that tune. I learned to play it by just memorizing the notes. I don't play the piano. All in all I will have to say this was just a super delightful find. You are in my treasured bookmark folder. Thank you ever so much for this stunning video. Very grateful on many levels.

      ​​@@lostandrestored I have the same type of lighter all it needs is the musical box and the lighter area repaired is there a way that I can send it to you and have you repair it I'll pay you for your work if that's okay. The only reason why I'm asking you to respond to me is that I cannot find anyone that can fix it I live in the US as well It's a 1961 house of Beauregard musical lighter from Japan

    Brasso is great, Nevr-Dull is even better, and not as messy! I used Brasso when I was in flight school in the Air Force, Nevr-Dull later when I found out about it. Nevr-Dull also polishes metals, beautifully, that Brasso won't touch.

    Hi I watched your video and restored the lighter it’s now working great! However when I took out musical component it literally fell apart? The “plate” the pieces were on is plastic it broke into pieces. At this point all I want to do is get the case connected back to the lighter but can’t figure out how to or what to connect the “screw and music box key” help please
