Clock dial restoration is my passion. If your clock has a
dial that has loss of numerals and paint, it is not only unsightly but
it diminishes the value of your clock. If you leave a flaking dial in a
current state of disrepair, it will continue to deteriorate and will
become worse over time.
Clock dials can
usually be restored to their original condition by retaining and
stabilizing existing paint, followed by color matching, replacement of
lost paint and repainting missing characters. If most of the paint and
characters are intact, the dial can be restored. Clock dial repair and
restoration is not a total repainting of the dial. I do not do total
strip and repainting, which is essentially re-manufacturing a clock
dial. Total repainting of a dial does not have the same look as an
original dial that has been restored.
I also re-silver clock dials. Clock dial restoration is a labor of love and I do all the restoration work myself. For
a free estimate of restoring the original beauty of your clock dial,
simply send your request to me at Thymeclock@yahoo.com.
