Maintenance of cast-iron and steel
Any steel or cast-iron stove needs some maintenance after each winter, during the warm season, in order to last a long time. As a
matter of fact, when a stove is in use, there is no possibility for its parts to get oxidised. It is only possible during a long period without
using it.
Cast-iron parts are to be maintained with a black paste (product code 0012). It should be applied cold, then waxed and, when it is dry,
polished with a soft cloth.
Hot temperature spray paint (cast-iron grey, product code 0001) can also be used for neater finish on the outside parts of the stove.
Before applying the paint, make sure that all the oxidation marks have been removed with thin grain emery cloth.
Cast-iron stoves with an enamelled outside finish need their inside firebox to be maintained.
This maintenance is necessary even more in case of appliances installed in houses that are infrequently inhabited.
All our maintenance products are described in our general catalogue (paste, paint, glass cleaning product, sweeping products, etc.).
You may buy them at our retailers.
