We’ve got a small log burner with a light grey stone surround.
Every time I open the door to poke the logs, bits of soot fall out and mark the stone when I brush them up.
I’m getting a little worried as the house is rented, so I want to leave it in good condition.
I’ve tried washing liquid and cream cleaner but they just don’t shift the stains.
Does anyone have any good tips that might help. I’m in UK, so products I can get my hands on here would help.
Many thanks.
I have this very same issue, and I found that Scrubbing Bubbles worked well. You just need something below to catch the filth that will run off. The bubbles penetrate the porous surface and draw out the soot.
If you can’t get scrubbing bubbles, then baking soda and vinegar would create the same kind of bubbling action but you’ll need the right proportions so as not to leave a baking soda residue.
