Great for repairing glaze damage on tiled stoves etc.

Pond varnish is traditionally used on tiled stoves instead of linseed oil paint. This is because pond varnish does not turn yellow when the stove gets hot.

Prepare the duster solution in the same way as when making linseed oil paint. Stir the color pigments with the dust solution to form a porridge. Then dilute with additional solution to the appropriate consistency. If the kiln is really old and dull, you can dilute the colored duster solution with turpentine, so that it becomes less shiny. If the damage to the glaze consists only of small scratches or occasional chips, it is usually sufficient to paint over them with a dusting solution as above, and omit the plasterwork altogether. With the right color in the wounds, they will disappear to the eye anyway. Repeat the treatment if the paint did not cover enough the first time.

Tips! V years of experience is that Gysinge linseed oil paint does not yellow like others. Therefore, as an alternative to a dust solution, try painting the damage with Gysinge paint instead.

On tiled stoves, the gaps between the tiles and between the door frame and vents are usually grouted with a special stove grout. This grout is “softer” and more pliable than the tile grout normally used to grout wall tiles.

The reason why the joint is softer is that a tiled stove, when fired and cooled, shrinks and swells much more than wall and floor tiles.

Gysinge’s ready-mixed stove grout is based on a traditional mixture of chalk and titanium white. It is therefore white in color and is most suitable for white ovens. If you have a colored oven, you add pigment in the appropriate color and stir well before stirring it all out with water.

Why is refractory mortar needed for iron stoves?

In iron cookers, the roof of the oven section needs to be covered with clay mortar to provide more even heat in the oven and to prevent the heat from rising and falling too quickly when firing. The mortar is also necessary to prevent the stove from cracking if the fire is too hot. In old iron stoves, you can usually only see the remains of this insulation in the form of a layer of gravel on top of the stove. Refractory clay mortar should only be laid on top of the stove roof.
