As mentioned in the video, this week I am restoring a part from the E30 that I have already restored. So I purchased this brake booster and master cylinder to show the process. This particular master cylinder would need serious internal work or replacing altogether. I purchased an internal seal kit but when I got in there, the second half of the assembly was well and truly stuck. So, I just got on with the aesthetic of it as I'm not actually using this on my E30. I will show the process of replacing the seals in my actual brake master cylinder in a future video.
Firstly I disassembled the booster and master cylinder. I then degreased everything before plugging any holes with Polydoh. Once sealed, I blasted them both to remove any paint and rust. With the pieces now mostly clean of rust and paint, I set about removing the rest with a rotary tool and wire wheel. I also filed a few nicks in the metal down. before etching priming and then high-build priming. I then sanded back the primer ready for base coat and lacquer. Whilst they dried, I cleaned the other small pieces with concentrated degreaser and elbow grease and trimmed the rubber hose's protection fabric.
Once they had dried it was time to reassemble. I purchased some new rubbers, o rings, and some air filter material. I placed the air filter in the gap and began added parts to the booster. Once assembled the restoration was complete.

What brand of degreaser do You use?
Awesome
PUBG is better
just putting it out there😌
Restore It love the BMW videos
I love you Restore ❤
OMG, he buys junk that he doesn't need just to show us a repetition of the restoration process of the part he had already restored off camera .. Dedication level > 9000! Hat's off to you, Sir :)
Thank you Ghassan!!
I don't get this restoration in the first place. Dedication is there, but I don't understand why. You've spent so much time, and some money on materials, to cosmetically restore this brake booster, but you haven't replaced any of the internal parts that are likely to fail. A new unit is $300 and will be reliable. This unit may now look nice and shiny but may fail down the road. And boosters do fail, I can tell you from experience.
Actually, I just looked it up. A new Ate unit for a Porsche (probably the same for BMW) is $201 USD. It makes no sense economically or from a safety perspective to cosmetically restore an old booster instead of just buying a new one.
@@GarthGoldberg I was thinking the same thing. Like I get he likes to restore shit but it's kind of a waste of time. Who knows how long it will last. The diaphragms inside of those things are made out of rubber and with the outside of it looking that bad I can't imagine what the inside of it looked like
@@GarthGoldberg Read his description @00:20 at the bottom of the video, you'll find out that he has no plans on using this master cylinder for the very same reasons you mentioned.
You are absolutely right as a matter of fact that piece of junk that looks SOOOOOO good is actually DANGEROUS
Of all the channels to get a Fortnite sponsorship, I honestly wasn't expecting it to be this one. Still, you deserve it. :)
Thanks, Liam, appreciate it.
I'm still here and I'm still 100% with seeing this entire restoration to the end
Same here
remove the circlip on the back of the master cylinder then blow some compressed air through one hole with caution while covering the other holes with your fingers...the piston will slide out, be carefull, and then you can easily replace the rubber seals and inspect the bore inside...if it is pitted then trash it...try it... here the replacement rubber seals are very cheap. you can clean anything brake related with alcohol only and for assembly wet it with brake fluid...brake fluid is hygroscopic so when storing calipers and master cylinders if you dont seal all the holes, air with moisture will get in and it will rust out on the inside very quicly, it can seize up in a matter of months.....
edit: ok i just read the description now...sorry
I never thought I would think a brake booster looked so beautiful.
I was only thinking that you could do with a nice cloth to lay your work on to photograph. Keep up with the great content. Thumbs up from me for no crappy music. 👍
I kinda like the workbench look, but it would be great if he could maybe add some polish or something
Now you have 2 just in case one brakes on you.
Ahaaaa
I see what you did there
As if Fortnite needed advertising, it disgusting: I hate this game ... But the video is totally awesome! 😍
Agreed
Excellent work but and the internal set must also be worn, this work is only aesthetic.
Yes you're right. Full details are always in the description. I explain everything. That video is coming soon.
Why restore if you can buy the spare part?
Wrong
Why buy a spare part if you can restore?
Right
Too true Robert!
Except that you cannot restore the booster diaphragm.
That poly dough is awesome
I also thought so!
Just out of curiosity, since the stuff said "reusable" couldn't you have soaked it in hot water again to remove it from the parts? Seems like it would be easier to remove when it's soft and pliable rather than all the digging and cutting you had to do while it was still molded.
I think someone with Epic Games likes classic Beemers.
Amazing job as always. The attention to detail, superb. Now, can you restore my marriage?
Another wonderful video...very therapeutic. I also really like the sounds (no music) in your videos. I read the description and know that you won't be using this booster/master cylinder but I would recommend that if you do, add a glob of good grease to the end of the pushrod prior to mounting the master cylinder on the booster...this will reduce wear but more noticeably, reduce the possibility of squeaking or creaking when pressing the brake pedal (ask me how I know...). I really like the paint/lacquer...seems to yield good results for projects like this. I live in the US so I'm not sure if I can get it here. I will have to look to see. Thanks again!
Thanks for the advice dewy I really appreciate it. I think Spraygunsdirect ship globally?
I totally agree with the therapeutic compliment of no music, fast motion, and light work sounds. Job well done (video and craftsmanship)!
Waiting to see what you do with the interior. You’re also going to put a bunch of people out of business showing people how to rebuild their E30’s.
Haha I do hope not. I'm going for a completely factory finish. Houndstooth as it was out of the factory.
Looks absolutely great! That quarts paint looks really good stuff.
Thanks, I highly recommend it.
use silicone plugs to mask your holes. way faster and cleaner! :)
работа достойна уважения, очень красиво ! но это не реставрация, а косметический ремонт. я думал что будет полная разборка, с заменой всех манжет и резинок.
так в том то и дело, что он всё только подкрашивает и подмазывает а само гнилое ведро будет отдавать "профессионалам"
@@bp3nivaкакое же ру коммьюнити все таки токсчиное. Нет чтобы красивым видосом насладиться, надо обязательно полить говном
@@tessleuthLive Если вы не понимаете что означает слово реставрация , то прошу вас помолчать и не показывать насколько вы глупы. А ваше высказывание о токсичности ру региона считаю вообще не уместным. Так как каждый имеет право на свое мнение и запрещать его высказывать вам никто не давал права.
@@user-un2tu1me8x многоуважаемый, откажу в вашей просьбе, ссылаясь на ваш же комментарий, что мол "никто не вправе запрещать выражать свое мнение". Где это вы разглядели в моем высказывании запрет на выражение собственного мнения? Если я говорю что ру коммьюнити токсичное, я не запрещаю им делиться своим мнением, я лишь говорю о своем наблюдении, потому что тенденция обосрать все чужое наблюдается чаще всего у русскоязычных комментаторов.
Куда он потом девает свои" поделки "?
That came out AWESOME!
Thanks Ronnie!
Blasting stuff in the cabinet is so cathartic. Cleaned a few motorcycle transmissions (also bmw) a few weeks ago, best hour in the week.
Haha I know what you mean.
what abt the rubber diaphragm inside is it still intact or torn???some parts r missing in yr nice work
Make more vids man!!!! Restore your bmw from begin till the end. In a 240hours video. I'll watch it man!!!
Working as hard and as fast as I can! Cheers!
@@RestoreIt love what you doing man. Keep going. Amazing job and vids
5:38 This video was recorded over 1 year ago. Top left. *_-Easter egg-_*
Wow. could be camera settings wrong too tho
Бог реставрации. Руки из правильного места растут. Молодца.
Hi, very cool. Make videos more often. Greetings from Russia
Working as fast as I can. To get one video out a week I am currently working 7 days a week all day either in the workshop or editing :)
To Brake Booster I would use new hose, its minimal cost and better look.
Fantastic job as always.....of course I made sure to hulk smash that like button too 👍
Thank you MMR, appreciate you as always.
what's up with the E30 sticker link? Great work I enjoyed it!
please keep this series going! im in love with watching the before and afters of this build !
Loads more to come John. Cheers!
Im glad to hear that ! You a good day boss .
Yeah another video. Nice work, nice video as always😍
Thank you Pharnando!
Do you find that you end up with a decently durable finish with this paint setup? It looks beautiful! Keep up the great work!
Thank you jim, yeah it's quite good. Depending on how thick you out it on will depend on how long it lasts. The quality of paint is very high also.
Just a little tip degreasers sometimes tend to leave a film behind so you may want to wash out the reservoir with very hot water and dry it out with compressed air. Brake fluid tends to not like other things mixed with it.
I love that you show more details of your great work and more importantly no music or taking :)
great video. I'm restoring my 1999 Honda Accord....well, I say restoring.....I took it to be washed by some Romanians down the road. It's a start!
я бы на цвет.лом сдал))))))нахрен такую гниль реанимировать)
What ever happened to the square gasket?
i cant escape from fortnight anywhere god damnit
Looks like celling fan without blades
Utterly fantastic.
But, just to clarify, you are restoring a potential spare for the E30 after restoring the original part?
The trouble with watching these types of videos, it tricks me into thinking I can do the same kind of thing in about 20 minutes. I have to consciously slow myself down and tell myself to take my time.
Thank you! And yes that's right. But my paint job is way better on this one so I'm tempted to do it again. This took a week in total, editing and all.
On the fabric covered hose, use a flame to burn the fabric ends/strays back gently then smooth it round with your fingers to give a perfect finish that won't Fray again 👍
no, don't use flame. paint the fray with 50/50 mix of pva glue and water, then wrap with small piece of cling film, then tape around the cling film to compress the fibres.
But where's the firewall gasket? He showed it crumbling I didn't see it replaced it new one made
these parts have to be new!
Excited to finish the whole car😆👍👍👍 great work!
Me to Carlos thank you!
No spring washers behind the nuts that hold the master cylinder on?
I'll add those :D
Good Video Man.. just a quick question, should I change my breakbooster or just the master cylinder on my car, because when I pop the breaks from the inside, the car just moving and wont stop unless I use the emergency brakes.. so I removed the pads to see if they worn out, but they still fresh new..
That paint job did come out super.
Can I suggest that you make yourself a "tool" for your videos?
Get a suitable sized cardboard box with lid, and a simple, cheap
hair drier. Cut one hole for dryer, duct tape it into box, not pointed at
the parts area. . Cut another slit for a vent.
Only handle freshly painted parts with new nitrile gloves.
Place your parts in drying box, dryer on HI for one hour.
Let cool 30 minutes before handling
The paint will be much more durable and harder when hot air dried.
Thanks man. Appreciate this advice. This is party why i'm moving to Spain. I need a hotter climate full stop but also more space for a proper cooker.
I hope to see the e30 restored one day, good job buddy. keep up the good fine work!
Me to Jar, thank you.
This is a very cool channel and is rapidly becoming one of my favorites. keep up the awesome work.
Thank you Jadedragon327! Lots more to come.
12:32 if you using air spray like this, and you called yourself an amateur, what would I called myself that I just using spray can?
Btw, good work my man. Will watch it until the car finish. 👍👍👍
I might have learned how to spray some paint'ish, but I still very much an amateur when it comes to mechanics, electrics, all sorts of things trust me. Very flattering though, thank you!
Ahhha a fake repair job....naughty young man lol....looks the same as my BMW 2002tii back in 1979.Except mine was also knackered.bleeding the brakes was also knackering lol.Whats this 2017 date stamp on the video...???Aha Back to the Futur eh!@? I LEFT THE LIGHT ON IN THE GARAGE AND JUST GOT THE ELECTRIC BILL LOL@@@😂💟Next car 1917 T Ford at least the date stamp would be a honest mistake hahaha....😁😀
Every friday evening when I see notification bell I'm like awww yeeeea!
Hell yeah Boris! Always good to see you.
Can't miss your videos, fantastic stuff.
Thank you for not adding any annoying music to these videos, and just keeping it simple.
I'm glad I stumbled upon your channel, you're doing a spectacular job, mate! But you're still not motivating me to restore my '01 740iL, LOL! It's not the motivation, of which I have plenty, it's the sticker shock of buying replacement BMW parts.
Great video restoration welcome to my channel
Can you please write below the link for the E30 stickers. I can't access the link in the description, is not completed. I basically need to know all the information about the little sign behind the front lights (left side), but I also need a few stickers for my E30
As always. Thanks for this amazing video
Very good work!!Like new again.Can I ask you if I will send to you the same part of brakes from my BMW 1602,to make it new?If it yes, which will be the total cost.Thank you!
Hmmmm... 10:01... The date is very suspicious) maybe he made all his videos in 2017 and only now is posting them!? Pretending like it is all an ongoing project but in reality he is already drifting that BMW
Sloppy work! You forgot to mask/polish the tips of the bolts!
Just kidding, great job...restoring the master cylinder on the inside would be interesting to see!
Thx for the vid!
:-D
Not bad. This isn’t a full restoration as the master cylinder didn’t get pulled apart. There’s seals that could have been replaced.
Hi Restore it, may i know where did you bought your e30 brake master cylinder repair kit from? tried to look around but unable to find it. thanks.
my e30 brake master cylinder has failed and looking for replacement. instead of replacing, if possible would like to look for repair kit.
Since the car takes DOT 4, Would you consider using the new DOT 5.1 Since it is fully compatible with DOT 3 and 4 and has a higher boiling point then even DOT 4
there are two different things...if you ask a company to do such restaurations, nobody will do it, because too expensive and it makes no sense...but, if you do it by yourself and you are able to do it, perfect and you save money, as long as you dont count the hours...but who is counting hourse for a hobby? great work!!!
Why do you add crystal hardener to you solvent deep black paint iv checked the manufacture and it is not a direct gloss. It’s just binder and pigment normal solvent paint just need to add paint thinner 2:1 ??? Plus that hardener was designed for the clear coat
You should skip the basecoat and topcoat and just use a good quality 2k paint, like from Standox, Glasurit, Valspar/Debeer.
"Descriotiopn" ?? are you dyslexic? Doesn't matter if you are, still very very very good video's. Absolutely love them, make me want to nearly buy a BMW
I almost pushed like for the video, then that commercial about that cancer shit game came, and I changed my mind.
I think this is just in painting cetegory
Description
Restoring old worn out parts may seem ludicrous when spare parts can be readily purchased but working to rebuild parts helps gain an understanding of process of manufacture and also allows practice of new skills. Also you're not possibly inheriting some else's mess, if you stuff up it's on you.
With all that effort, I would have honed and rebuilt the Master cylinder and at least tested the Vacuum power diaphragm. I understand why you didn't, but a master cylinder rebuild kit is cheap insurance and then you'd have a spare.
It would have been neat if you took the diaphragm of the booster apart, but I’m kinda glad you didn’t
I always enjoy your videos since I am also restoring such parts BUT do yourself a favor and always replace rubber parts and seals since they willcame back and leak.
Greetings Bernhard
So many ads! Four and then a paid promotion. I don't mind ads but keep it to a minimum, I have ad block and don't use it on selected channels. Nice way to alienate your viewers. You have good content but it's pretty terrible.
i make the same with my brake booster but in short time i decide to upgrade my brakes in general so i choise 310 mm audi TT brake discs,e38,735 brembo calibers and double booster from e34.
With respect , What about the diaphragm? And testing it, and What about the master cylinder bushes and seals ? Without changing them all that cosmetic work is useless. .......
Another top notch video of a job well done,easily gets my 5 ☆ rating
Thank you as always Colin.
your work was good but your knowledge of what you were working on was not . The master cylinder had a rear seal leak this allows brake fluid to drain into the power boaster thus compromising the integrity of the diaphragm in side the power boaster unless fixed the whole project is useless.
i tought you had mounted the master cylinder upside down cause the vacum rose was on the right side but then you talked at the end of the video and i realized you're from the uk (or australia, i can't tell) and the break booster is on the left side of the engine lol
anyway great video, you're a inspiration for me and my friends!
This channel grew too fast. A preroll ad, two mid roll ads, an in-video promotion, and lots of name-dropped products. Time to look for a smaller channel again, I suppose.
Clicked on video hoping to see how to fully restore brake booster and brake master. Sad to see it was only cosmetic and not mechanical. Most of your videos you show the full restoring process
Great video. Just a little question: in the description you say you place air filter in the gap... Could you tell me which gap, please?
Why did Fortnite pay you for a advertisment? I thought every body new about this game
Next time you should try get that reservoir completely clean. And replace that hose outer layer, just rip old outer layer off and replace it with nylon, it should look pretty fine with that.
You make the parts look like new on the outside, however, that’s not how you rebuild / restore a master cylinder and a booster. Functionality is more important than just looks
If you have access to ultrasonic cleaner bath, put the fluid reservoir into it. You will be surprised by the result - it removes the yellowish color, so the tank will look like new.
Everything is good, but why did you not change the seals inside the master brake cylinder?
This was a demo he bought used just to show us what he did. The ACTUAL unit from his car was a complete rebuild, but wasn't filmed.
Guessing the people complaining about the sponsorship have never restored a car. It's an insanely expensive process, the man needs some return for all his effort.
I wonder why you don't use rubber corks to cover the holes???? From Amazon. Nice job anyway!!!!
Literally took order of 50 assorted corks today no jokes.
Very nice work. I really enjoy watching your videos. I notice you paint your parts. Are there any parts you have powder coated rather than paint.
Very good videos.
Probably the main brake cylinder ist full of rust particle. I would bye a new one.
Looks really nice, but what about the seals and springs inside cylinder?
You know, not sure if your aware but your supposed to get the spare part first to experiment on and learn how to properly restore before you do your own. Not the other way around......
:)
Good video, just, around 6:50 or 6:55 the video goes all broken for a second or two. :(
The cost of restoring should be look into in all aspects mostly performance and longevity, if not buy another might be cheaper.
Restore It. You use this paint in quite a few of your restoration projects, how does the Quartz paint hold up over time?
Hello there. The link to E30 Stickers is broken. Can you please provide again...?
how much to do this i have a montego that needs this done
i got a spare one that needs repainting ready to fit to the car
I clicked on this to see how you removed the reservoir but I guess you did it off camera
You do not replace the 30Year old Vaccum Hose? Really?
Are the quartz paint products you use available in the US? Having a hard time locating them.
I have just finished my refurb on my mk1 servo wow takes longer than you think it. Good job on yours.
