Like others said, a little goes a long way. Much longer than you’d expect.
Also, wear gloves. It’s does make a mess of your hands if you do touch it.
Would recommend. Only 4 stars because I needed gloves. If I didn’t need gloves, it would be the perfect product!

It happens my stove is textured with a "coffee bean" pattern in the castings, and as such was very hard to wipe on lightly with a cloth. I wound up taking palmfuls of the stuff and basically gooping up every surface I could reach, and giving it two days to dry. This process took a while, and wound up using the whole 6oz jar for my stove. Seemed like a lot, but then.. who am I to say?
Fast-forward to today:
1. My hands which had been stained black like a gorilla from the application process have been scrubbed back to about a 20% gray tone. Getting better.
2. A particularly cold day hits and I decide to warm up the workshop with a fire in my beautiful matte black spic-n-span stove. All's well for the first 10 minutes then suddenly, as the stove is getting to temperature, smoke starts rolling off every surface I polished. "It'll burn off" I think to myself. 30 minutes pass. My workshop is now down to about 8 inches of visibility, and my throat burns like I've been smoking Camel Reds. I am frantically googling to see what to do about this. NO RESULTS.
Finally I decide to go nuts, and I take a pile of rags and some welding gloves and start polishing the stove. It smokes worse than ever, but gradually starts to calm down. Each time I buff with a rag a plume of white vapor rolls up then gradually diminishes. Eventually I go nuts and grab a stiff natural-bristled floor scrubber and a bucket of water, go at the stove like a pissed-off deck hand, making a monsoon of smoke and steam and spraying speckles of coal black water.
The storm relents, and about 1.5 hours into the burn-in session I am left with a good-looking, seasoned, clean, and happy wood stove, but OH OH OH MY was it a ton of work.
In short:
- Applying this product is very very tricky if your stove is textured.
- Thin it out a lot and apply sparingly with a stiff brush, then buff dry after a bit.
- Fire up the stove and be prepared with lots of ventilation. LOTS.
- DO NOT APPLY THIS STUFF RIGHT BEFORE BRINGING YOUR BOSS/INLAWS OVER FOR DINNER IN FRONT OF A WARM ROARING FIRE.
