In this video, I restored an old Spanish machete.
It is the first time I have used laser cleaning technology to remove rust in my restoration videos, and I am happy with the result. There were a few spots when the laser couldn't do the job well because of the thickness of the rust, but with a bit of brushing, the problem was solved. It is my first Machete restoration, so please let me know in the comments section if you enjoyed the video and the outcome. Please let me know if you want me to use the laser more often in my restoration videos.

If you enjoy my work, please consider subscribing! More amazing restoration videos will be posted regularly and all the time when I restore a beautiful old item. Cheers!
