General
If your fireplace is a valuable antique, seek specialist advice
before undertaking any maintenance work.
Wherever possible, keep to the fireplace manufacturer's cleaning
instructions.
Always test cleaner on an inconspicuous area first to make sure
it won't bleach out any colour.
Protect carpet and other areas with newspaper or old sheets.
Black grate polish is messy, so always wear rubber gloves.
When removing rust from cast iron, wear goggles to protect your
eyes from flaking particles.
