Gents, is there any of you out there with a logburner, who knows the secret of how to get the burnt on soot/carbon off the door glass. I have tried just about everything, any ideas ??

Make a paste from wood ash and water, then use cloth and elbow grease.

Coca cola? Would need to be full fat as diet is not as corrosive.

 

[Irish]

White vinegar and a scouring pad for a nonstick pan i do it once a week and it takes seconds as long as its done regular

 

[Roger Welton]

When its clean get it proper hot every now and then to burn off any new build up.

 

[stani]

Spray-on furniture polish, then just wipe it off, if it's particularly bad might have to do it twice,

 

[Ermintrude]

Used to use brillow pads and hot water when I was a boy.

 

[Jollysoutherner]

Dip a piece of newspaper in water, then collect some soft ash on the wet paper and rub the glass. Polish off with the dry side of the paper.

 

[Barry98]

Heat it up put tomato sauce on and elbow grease with a scourer

Tried so far, I find the ash / paste mix/elbow grease is the best. I have also tried (when herin doors aint at home) Petrol LOL, Diesel, WD 40, T-cut, rubbing compound. upvc cleaner and White vinegar. Non seem to work.

Bod, are you using up some of your Yorkshire humor on this one mate LOL

LOL Yes this one is supposed to have one, if you have it fully open you would need a forest, and it still soots up the doors. Thanks for the link

What timber do you burn in it?
I don't know much about it, but am told you really must use dry timber 2year old if possible & don't be tempted to use any manufactured timber like plywood or chipboard cuttings or any timber with paint on it. That will mean less soot & tar hopefully.

does it matter its still giving out heat.
