This Is a proper conservation unlike those who just remove all original details and just give it new everything until its basically a new helmet. This helmet looks great. The only thing I would say which I know would take a lot more time only for a small detail, but trying to preserve what is left of the lining and trying to reinstall it would have been amazing. Other than that very impressive work especially on managing to preserve original paint.

Well i wouldnt repaint this either, even a little speck of original paint makes the helmets price skyrocket and these are already expensive enough

Love how you preserve history instead of trying to make it brand new

I got you but I'm more of the other way,looks over originality.

Hello from Russia, the city of Eagle , I also like to search for this kind of things of the 2nd World War in my area , and then bring them into a good look if the condition allows , I also collect 7.92 casings by manufacturers of factories , I want to say a great job ! You have preserved the old oskras and even preserved it, definitely like it, I love military history and therefore it was always important for me not to translate into a new look, but to clean up to the extent as in the video to preserve the old color of those things is worth a lot, I am delighted to finally find a normal restorer who respects history and treats she is in awe, I haven't seen this yet, everyone usually tries to make absolutely new things out of these things, but it can't be because they belong in a museum and they are more than 80 years old! It is especially upsetting when the preserved factory color is removed by some regular restovrator who wants these things to shine and shine

Респект вашему мастерству👍!30лет назад мы к сожалению на раскопках считали безнадёжно погибшими такие шлемы и оставляли там где находили,щяс с горечью вспоминаю ошибки юности XXвека😟

That's an amazingly well-preserved helmet.

Ficou perfeito, parabéns 👏👏👏👏. Saudações do Brasil. From Brazil.

Very interesting restauration video--thanks from Germany ! I would use saftety goggles when working with chemicals like citric-or oxalic acid. --------My uncle converted these helmets as POW in Russia by forging to cooking pots and vegetable pass-throughs.... The steel was, I think, foodstuff-proof.......In musea with after war items these kitchen tools are still to be seen, even with real enameling.

Parabéns ficou muito top, abraço aqui do Brasil 🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷

Is this a restoration??? Dude didn't even remove the rust. Amateur work. And in the comments all people WOW, what a wonderful job. Truly children.

Stunning as always. Keep up the great work!!!

Excellent work as per usual. Looks fantastic.

It was awesome you preserved as much of the original paint. Kudos to you and thanks for preserving history.

Отличный результат!!!

Very nicely done! I preserved a Hetzer track link a few days ago. It's very important we preserve as much History as we can!😃

You did the best that could be made of the helmet. A real original helmet. Greetings from Germany Torsten

The ground you live on/near really is gentle with these helmets would love to see you try this with helmets found in western europe! they're (often) unrestoreable

Excellent conservation skills, as we have come to expect from your channel.

Amazing! I am extremely excited about what you had done! ❤❤❤❤❤

Insane job! Well done, it looks brand new. I am amazed it turned out so well!

Very nice! I love your videos man.

Interesting that how good quality is helmed under rust, nice video 👍

That's not restoring that's preserving, you did what a curator would have done. Good job with the wax.

That's an early M40 cause it has the aluminum liner band with the square chinstrap loops.

Awesome.... the wax gives it a perfect non over-restored look. 👍👍🍺🍺

Можно еще смеситель в ванной почистить, видно что ему тоже нужно это))

Did you save the split pins?

Very nice preservation.

*Привет!!!Лайк от Питерских копателей Войны!!!👍👍👍👍👍*

Nicely done Sir. 👌

Good job as always

I always keep the helmet liner the way it is..and preserve it as good as possible while it’s still attached the way it was

Nice find.👍

This helmet is a great piece of memorabilia.

Зачем молотком стучать? Есть натфеля и гравер для этого!

Beautiful, it’s nice to see that you’re still preserving history.

I'm surprised there was any original paint left for you to preserve.

Fantastic job!

good job 👍👍

Awesome! Does the wax/heat make the paint crackle or bubble up? Got an M40 in quite similar condition and looking for a way to further preserve it, without damaging the paint!

Superb.

Красава отлично получилось

Restoring my first helmet, has damage on the rim (bits rusted off where it is folded over). How would I go about fixing this? I thought about using clay and sculpting the folded part back but it doesn't seem like the right thing to do with it.

What ratio did you use for the acid? like every gallon was 5 cups of the acid for an example.

Isn't the rust under the wax still keep going? What you have done looks great!! Enjoyed your video and I gave it a Thumbs Up for your channel

Rust growth cannot be stopped. This process can only be slowed down. There is no access of oxygen under the wax layer and the corrosion process is greatly slowed down. In a dry room, this helmet can be stored for years and will not rust.

Very good comrade!

Very good 😊

What is the reason for scrubbing the helmet clean before hammering the rust? And why didn't you hammer all of the bulging rust spots?

Спасибо за видео!

I wish you would come to the Philippines. On the final push in Bataan, the Japanese brought in a line of bulldozers and simply buried the first line of American defenders alive. There has been no legal, official effort to excavate or explore the area where the trenches were to recover bodies or relics.

What country are you finding all these items?

Nice restoration! But why didn't you put the liner band back?

In remarkable condition for being close to eighty years old, and buried probably for most of that time too.

Is the green liquid towards the end just soap or is that bleach or some kind? Also what is the clear liquid used right at the end with the heat gun? Thanks

Can I send you a WWII Mimeograph for you to restore?

Eso se puede quedar mucho mejor, aún tiene mucho oxido. Un saludo

Great job 👍. The helmet was very rusty, I could not even imagine that so much paint could be hidden under this layer of rust. From now on, I will carefully clean all my relics, so as not to miss anything interesting.

There are no bullet holes in this helmet. There are three holes for attaching the liner and one formed by corrosion of the metal.

Forgot to sandblast, retexture and repaint it.. also forgot to redo the wermacht logo.
