Summary

Here is a concise summary of the text:

**Project:** Restoration of a vintage German pocket flamethrower (gasoline burner)
**Summary:**

* The device was disassembled, revealing carbon deposits, rust, and worn-out parts.
* Various cleaning methods were used:
+ A commercial cleaner for non-ferrous parts (effective with minimal scratching)
+ Chemical paint removal for the iron tank (successful with subsequent rust removal using emery cloth)
+ Special coating for metal protection on the iron part
* After thorough cleaning and restoration, all parts were reassembled.
* The flamethrower was successfully tested, producing a powerful, high-temperature blue flame that works in any position, outperforming a standard gas burner.

Facts

Here are the extracted key facts, each numbered and in short sentences, excluding opinions:

**Device Information**

1. The device is an old German gasoline burner, also described as a pocket flamethrower.
2. It is compact in size.

**Initial Condition and Restoration Process**

3. The gasoline container was in poor condition with cracked paint.
4. The container needed to be unscrewed from the front of the burner for paint removal.

12. The tank was painted with a newly acquired paint, which matches the original closely.
13. A special composition for coating real weapons was applied to the iron part for protection.

**Assembly and Testing**

14. After cleaning and painting, all parts were reassembled.
15. Purified gasoline was used for testing to avoid potential hazards.
16. A piston was used to pump up pressure inside the tank before ignition testing.
17. A bath of alcohol was set on fire to heat up the burner nozzle for faster evaporation.
18. The device was successfully ignited and produced a high-temperature, bright blue flame.

**Performance Observations**

19. The burner worked in any position.
20. It heated a thick wire to almost a white glow.
21. A brass tube melted in seconds when exposed to the flame, indicating high power.
