Stovax Black Grate Polish

Works well. Bit messy.

I've never bought anything to make my stove look new again before. My parents used to use something called Zebrite on stoves when I was a kid so knew it needed doing. Couldn't find that brand but I have a Stovax stove so this seemed like a good option. The reviews were a bit mixed but went for it. No need to worry. It was really easy to apply (I used an old sock on my hand with a sheet of kitchen roll inside) rubbed a few pea sized blobs on and it came out great. I'd say give the tube a shake before opening. It was quite runny at first which I wasn't expecting but a quick shake made it more consistent. As you can see form my photos, it looks great now. The before photo is a bit more exposed but you can clearly see how much better it looks after a 5 minute make over.

To cover a small area of bare metal on my yeoman wood burning stove door, and it appears to have worked, but will apply a bit more when I get chance just to seal it completely.

Used this on a restoration project - old Victoria fireplace. Good size and ornate - the hard work was really the stripping of 30+ years of paint by previous owners. But afterwards this product made it all worth while. Brought out the details and gave the fireplace an amazing finish! Would definitely use it again. Easy to apply, used soft cloth and small toothbrush in ornate areas. No real smell, and after going over with a clean cloth, no residue.

It was easy to use to revive an old black metal cooker hood, it now looks great, dries quickly and not messy to apply

Wanted to clean up the log burner in a house we just bought. This stuff did the job. It's a bit messy to use and comes with a whole list of health warnings on how to use safely which scared me a little. In the end I did use it and it did the job very well the log burner came up really well. Looks much newer and blacker now. There is plenty left in the tube for when it needs ding again.

brilliant for restoring finish on wood burning stoves

Takes a while to dry
