2. Fog the Teco-Sil to the desired look, using high tem-
perature black paint (Hearth & Home Technologies
part number TUP-GBK-12). See below for fogging
tips. Prior to painting, take precautions to prevent any
overspray from reaching the pilot assembly.
Fogging Tips
• Apply paint with the ember lights turned on. This will help
you avoid over fogging or under fogging.
• Reduce the lighting in the room while applying the paint.
• Fog the Teco-Sil to create a realistic coal bed appear-
ance.
• Allow the paint to dry/cure a minimum of 15 minutes.
