I am currently working on a wrought iron bakers rack and boy do the curly cues on your fence look familiar. The loveliest part of your video was the sound of the birds singing in the background, thank you. And why do my hands look so much worse than yours? I have been wearing gloves.

This is a job well done with more patience than I can usually muster. Thanks for sharing. Cheers.

Who else learning this art in 2020

Very nice job!🙂

Great video, as always. Wish I'd seen it a few months ago, as I've made bit of a pig's ear of a job I did using and all-in-one Hammerite product. Would you have used Metalshield if you had the choice?

Thanks! Very helpful!

Looks amazing.

Fantastic job as always but Once all cleaned and scraped of would it not of been easier to have used Rust oleum combi colour?

Question please: How do you paint the bottom horizontal bar underneath? On mine it is very close gate closed but gate open drive goes down so some parts should be OK but near the hinges hard. Also any rules to paint the hinges? (So the gate opens and closes again after painting?)

Nice job mate

Thanks for this video. It is very help for the newbie. I have some wrought iron on the windows and this really helps

Good as new. Quite a painstaking process.

Great job budd.

A broken hacksaw blade is useful to get rust off in the tight nooks and crannies. Must be one of the worst items to prep & paint.

I hate doing our two 6 ft driveway gates. Next time Iam thinking of doing the prep and then spraying them with rattle cans. I figure the extra I spent on paint will be money well spent on saving time on my knees.

Nice one, thanks

buy some abranet sanding mesh a lot more flexible really good stuff !

I prefer to use owatrol oil on any rust followed by spotting in with zinc oxide. I've found owatrol to be farr better than kurust. Also owatrol in my undercoat and top coat, about 3/4 a cap owstrol to 1 litre paint.

Well done fella, you have more patience than me

“It’s not easy” counter

great Job, nice to see Zinc Primer on the bare Rust/Metal works a treat nice Job and a great Clip

How long should I wait before light sanding the primer and undercoat layers with P180?

If I was doing larger gates can the rust converter be left overnight in rain/winter weather before zinc primer applied next day? I can’t get them prepped and rust treated and primed in one day and I’m expecting rain ?? Thanks

that's what I call a gate is shame is not a black top work.

You do a proper job and just use basic tools, nice

🖌👍. Painting gates with scroll work 😲😲😲😢😭

Great dedication to a balls ache job. I'd be lazy and use rattle cans👍

I just use spray paint, mush quicker but like your work

How long did it take you just wondering.

How do you know if it’s a sewer drain or a freshwater drain?

Wht is price for paint this gaite

Nasty jobs those, I just had my gate dipped much easier. Why do you need a primer and an undercoat, what difference does it make if one was omitted?

take gate off hinges

Looks great. One of my least favourite kind of jobs to be honest.

I have 30 years experience of my own never had any complaints

Do you take jobs in London?

I'm painting a similar gate 3times the size with similar pattern and 20 spikes/tips on top. It has rust, 2 layers of flaking paint and I want to shoot myself in the foot.

Why didn’t you use spray paint?

Wouldn`t it be easier using a heat gun?

What a pain in the neck ! , Iron fences should be illegal !

That's NOT wrought iron, it's steel, that's why it's rusting like that. So your video should be called 'painting steel'.
