Antique Bronze Kerosene Stove Restoration

Hello folks! Today I will show you my new restoration of an antique bronze kerosene stove. Year of manufacture, 1890-1920. I found this antique item at a flea market. The condition of the item speaks for the prices, age-old patina and rust. But I will save this kerosene stove! Let's start the restoration!

The first duty I took off the lid, partially shook out the debris and dust that were in the kerosene and cleaned the surface of the object with the help of a sandblaster. It's amazing how quickly and cleanly the sandblaster cleans the surface. The most interesting thing I found was 3 stamps, two digits and one stamp that I didn't understand what it meant. If anyone knows, write in the comments.
Next, I began manual sanding of the brass part of the stove. I used sandpaper from 100 to 500 grit and then polished the surface.

During the processing process, I took out an old piece of wick from the kerosene stove, it was funny, and I took out the second piece when I washed the kerosene tank.
I sanded the second part of the kerosene (after sandblasting) and used three types of protection to protect against corrosion. The first is oil and fire (as in the variant with cast iron), the second is a means of blackening the surface and the third protection is a refractory paint. By the way, it can withstand 650 degrees of heat.

After that, I inserted a new wick into each of the sections and made a test of this old kerosene. I think you will like this restoration video. Thanks for your attention!

Sincerely, Alex. Thanks for attention!
Good luck and health to everyone! With best wishes, Alex!
