I Brought This RUSTY Wrench Back to LIFE with a MIRROR FINISH!

I have had this rusty pipe wrench for a very long time and it was about time it had an Old School Restoration! I disasembled this and drilled out the rivets, then I used evaporust to remove the rust.

Once cleaned up I began the restoration, filling, sanding and lots of polishing, then tapping holes to replace rivets with machine screws. Finally picking out some detail with red paint.

I was pretty happy with how this came out, the only thing I was slightly disappointed in was the white highlighting of the text, that didn't come out as crisply as I would have liked. I may try a different method on the next one, are there any you would recommend?

I hope you enjoy the rust removal and the restoration.
