Imperial Manufacturing KK0057 Stove Polish Liquid 8Oz

After 6 years of using a wood stove, it was time to give it a makeover. With litle bits of rust showing here and there, I needed something to bring back that "new" look it had when I first bought it. I found this polish and thought to give it a try. After a light scrubbing with a scour pad and a good wiping down, I applied the polish with a small brush and then rubbed it in with a piece of cotton cloth. I did this about one week before I was going to use the stove as the weather got a little colder. As expected, the stove smoked a bit as it did when I first bought the stove, so, I opened the windows to allow the smell and smoke to exit the room. The smoke and smell burned off after a couple of burns (as it does when new) and now the stove is so beautiful and without smoke and smell. The polish is just what the wood stove needed and sure does put that "New" look back to my stove. I have a medium size stove and the 8oz bottle has enought in it to polish the stove several more times. This polish applies easily and though I don't know how long this first application will last, I'm very happy with it. This polish is in a liquid form and not like shoe polish (paste). It easily gets into small cracks and crevices and works as intended when applied correctly. Yes, it smokes at first, but the end results are worth it. Y'all take care.

It works as described!

Very pleased. Wear gloves and do over safe surface, I used cardboard and a painter sponge.

It's taken me a LONG time to write this review vs. just assign stars, but I wanted to share my first experience with this product. My beloved Waterford woodstove is 42 years old, and all it takes to keep it beautiful is an annual cleaning. This product is effective. However, because it's a "thin" liquid, it's VERY messy to use and hard to avoid drips (which are very difficult to clean off a cement floor). My previous stove polish was thick, in a tube vs liquid in a bottle, and easily applied with a cloth and brush. My recommendations are: 1) Wear a very good pair of vinyl gloves or the required rubbing will make holes in your gloves, 2) place newspapers under and around wood stove 3) pour small amounts on a cloth vs brush which will splatter the polish all over the place 4) Prepare to spend more PATIENT time in application vs a thicker product.

Super easy! The liquid is the consistency of creamy salad dresaing. Darkened and refreshed the color of my little gas stove. Looks new now. I wanted to get it repolished before rust ruined it (it was starting). Never knew this needed to be done but really glad i found this product. Ill be doing my mothers next.

Worked great on my buck stove.

This looks great at first, but rubs off and makes a mess.

As advertised

My two thirty year old stoves, and pipes, look brand new. Never thought I would see it. Goes on right over the rust, lol. One $20 bottle did two full size stove and pipes top to bottom. Went on with a paintbrush. Best damn value I have had in thirty years. Still have almost a quarter bottle left. Cleans up with water.

Make sure the item you’ll polish is clean and fully dry, and wear gloves. Better yet, polish the items in a tray that you don’t mind staining or do it outside on old newspapers. Otherwise you’ll stain your hands, fingernails and countertops.

I just purchased this stove polish to improve the appearance of my cast iron grates and I’m extremely impressed with the quality of this product. Our grates look so much better and I will definitely be repurchasing once we need to re-up!

Makes my weathered BBQ cast aluminum hood

Shines up our rusty Franklin fireplace at the cottage. Makes it look almost like it’s new. Easy to apply.
