It goes on with a cloth, and you buff it off when it's dry. Very OS, like doing the range in Victorian times! See linky I added above!

Hi Bobs! I used something called 'Stove black' which we get from our lovely old-fashioned hardware shop. I think the local coal merchants sells it as well, but can't find the tin for the name! It's like shoe cream, but for stoves :rotfl:

ETA: This is similar, but I did not pay that much!

Zebrite is the brand name IIRC???

How many cuppa teas do you have in a day? I've had 5 today and probably another 3 before bed. That's excessive right? Does tea do any harm if we drink too much?

Mrs_Chip

Just about to have my first and only of the day...:o

Mrs_Chip

I think that's ok - at least you are drinking! I have had half a can of diet coke so far today ... and now a small cup of tea.


I want one of these - he can live in the bath!
