Datsun 240Z Restoration - Moment of Color (Part 01)
In this video I'm continuing the restoration on my 1973 Datsun 240Z. In the last video the car was blasted, primed and also high build primer was applied.
After a few weeks of curing the high build primer it was time to start preparing the car for the final paint job. The complete car and all its parts were block sanded. To see low spots better a dry guide coat was applied. Sanding is needed until all low spots are gone, but you need to stop sanding once you reach bare metal. If there are still low spots after that, means it needs body filler. Sometimes also a few light hammer hits could also help. On all the spots with body filler and bare metal was epoxy primer applied. Doors, fenders, hood and tailgate looked still a bit rough after that step. That's why another coat of high build primer came on for the final fine sanding with 320 grit. After this step the paint had 2 months time to properly cure before the actual paint job. During that time I applied seam sealer and sealed all gaps and everything where water could get trapped. I also installed sound deadening on the inside of the car. It's extra made to be painted, this way I'm having it like it was original.
Right before the paint all surfaces were fine sanded with 400 grit. First the chassis was on the rotisserie to apply the undercoating. Then the car was painted underneath, inside and the engine bay. First one closed layer of the right grey shade was applied, after around 30 minutes 2-3 coats of base coat was applied. I choosed an original Datsun color: Datsun 920 Safari Gold. The color was adjusted a little bit to have more pop, the original one was a bit pale and too brownish. To finish the paint job, two nice coats of clear coat were applied. The car then came off the rotisserie to paint the outside. Once the chassis was done all the remaining parts were painted. For the rear panels, spoilers, grille and wheels I picked a nice anthracite called Daytona Grey. All these parts were covered by a matte clear coat. The dark parts fit very nice with the mustard yellow ones in my opinion, they have a very nice contrast.
This was such a big journey to come to this point and I'm very happy to finally have the car painted. It took 48 days of work for all the work you can see in that 13 minutes video.
I hope you like my work and enjoy the video.

Bangle Bliss: Crafting Colorful and Creative Bangles
Bangles making is a traditional craft that involves the creation of decorative bracelets made from various materials such as glass, metal, wood, plastic, or even natural materials like seeds, shells, or bones. The process of making bangles varies depending on the materials used, but typically involves a combination of shaping, cutting, and decorating.
For example, in glass bangle making, the artisan will first heat glass rods to a molten state and then shape them into a circular form using a bangle-making machine or a wooden mandrel. The bangle is then allowed to cool and harden, after which it is decorated with various designs using paint, glitter, or beads.
In metal bangle making, the artisan may use a metal sheet or wire to create the bangle's basic shape, which is then hammered and filed to achieve the desired thickness and texture. The bangle is then decorated by engraving or adding gemstones or other embellishments.
In wood bangle making, the artisan may use a lathe or carving tools to shape the bangle from a solid block of wood, which is then sanded and polished. The bangle may be left plain or decorated with intricate carvings or paint.
Overall, bangles making is a time-honored craft that requires skill and creativity, and produces beautiful pieces of jewelry that can be worn for various occasions.

How Radiator Hose Pipes are Made in Local Factory
the process of making radiator hose pipes in a local factory involves breaking down the production steps into clear and detailed explanations. Here are some video description ideas:
Raw Material Selection and Preparation:
Video Description: "In this video, we explore the initial stages of radiator hose pipe manufacturing. Watch as the raw materials, primarily rubber compounds, are carefully selected and prepared for production. The rubber is mixed with various additives to enhance its durability, heat resistance, and flexibility, crucial for the hose's performance in vehicles."
Extrusion Process:
Video Description: "This video takes you inside the extrusion process, where the prepared rubber mixture is fed into an extruder machine. The rubber is heated and forced through a specially designed die, shaping it into a continuous hose pipe. The extrusion process ensures uniform thickness and diameter, which are critical for the hose's effectiveness."
Molding and Shaping:
Video Description: "Watch as the extruded rubber hose is cut into specific lengths and then placed into molds to create bends and curves as required by the radiator system design. This molding process uses heat and pressure to shape the hose precisely, ensuring it fits perfectly in the vehicle's engine bay."
Reinforcement and Curing:
Video Description: "In this segment, see how reinforcement layers are added to the hose pipes. Textile or wire reinforcements are embedded into the rubber to increase strength and prevent collapse under pressure. After reinforcement, the hoses undergo a curing process in a large oven, where they are heated to set their final shape and enhance their resilience."
Quality Control and Testing:
Video Description: "Quality control is crucial in radiator hose pipe production. In this video, observe the rigorous testing processes where hoses are checked for leaks, strength, and flexibility. Each hose is subjected to high-pressure testing to ensure it can withstand the demanding conditions of an engine's cooling system."
Final Inspection and Packaging:
Video Description: "Finally, the finished radiator hoses undergo a thorough inspection to ensure they meet all quality standards. Once approved, they are cleaned, labeled, and packaged for distribution. The video ends with a look at the packaging process, where hoses are carefully packed to prevent damage during transportation."
