Vintage Footpump Restoration (Brass mirror finish)
In this video I restore this old Dunlop Standard footpump.
The Process
The resoration of this vintage footpump was definitely a labour of love. Due to it's age it required unexpected parts, such as leather washers and a lot of elbow grease!
I started by disassemlbing the pump, and washing down the brass parts. I sanded down the main chamber and brass elements to remove the grime which had built up over the years. Meanwhile, the main frame soaked in rust remover to strip it down to bear metal.
Once the rust had been removed from the frame, It was treated with a base coat, followed by black gloss spray paint. The brand and model was hand painted on the footrest.
I made a new leather washer to replace the existing solution, which looked like it had been fixed using two thinner pieces at some point. This was fitted to the pump and soaked in vegetable oil.
Once all parts were ready, the pump was reassembled ready for use once again!
Thanks for watching, see you next time.
