Our Steel Sealing Wax is made of beeswax and mineral oil. Works great on our fire pokers, fire shovels, meat hooks, bottle openers and more. We seal all of our products before they go out the door to prevent rust and corrosion.
We recommended that you reseal your products every 6 months to a year with our steel sealing wax to keep up this level of protection. The tin is 2 ounces.
Simply heat up your steel product. Take a rag or fine wire brush or old rag, rub the wax over the product and let dry. A little goes a long way! Once it looks wet and evenly coated, you’ve got enough. Wipe excess off with rag.
Steel sealing wax keeps your products like new, easy to apply and hand mixed in our shop.
At our workshop, we meticulously craft our steel sealing wax using a proprietary formula developed by Zad. Combining premium mineral oil and beeswax, we ensure a perfect blend that not only enhances the durability of your fire poker but also provides a protective barrier against rust and corrosion. Zad’s hands-on approach and dedication to quality guarantee that each batch of sealing wax is meticulously prepared from scratch, adhering to strict standards to deliver exceptional results.
Our steel sealing wax is proudly food grade, meaning it’s safe for use on fire pokers and other metal tools that come into contact with food or heat. This ensures peace of mind for our customers, knowing that their fire-tending essentials are not only effectively preserved but also maintained in a manner that upholds safety and durability. Whether for indoor fireplaces or outdoor fire pits, our sealing wax offers reliable protection, prolonging the lifespan of your cherished fire poker with a touch of artisan craftsmanship.
Mineral oil and beeswax are a formidable combination for sealing metal, particularly beneficial for our handmade fire pokers. Mineral oil, known for its ability to penetrate deeply into metal surfaces, helps to lubricate and protect against moisture, preventing rust and corrosion over time. This quality makes it an excellent choice for maintaining the integrity of fire pokers exposed to varying temperatures and environmental conditions. Beeswax, on the other hand, adds a natural barrier that seals the metal effectively, offering additional protection against oxidation and wear.
Together, mineral oil and beeswax create a durable and long-lasting seal on our fire pokers, enhancing their lifespan and durability. This combination not only preserves the aesthetic appeal of the metal but also ensures smooth operation and reliable performance when tending to fires in both indoor fireplaces and outdoor settings. By choosing mineral oil and beeswax for our sealing formula, we prioritize quality craftsmanship and longevity, providing our customers with fire pokers that are both functional and beautifully preserved for years of use.
Applying our food-grade steel sealing wax to our handmade fire pokers is a straightforward process that ensures lasting protection and a polished finish. To begin, warm the fire poker gently using a torch or simply expose it to warm sunlight. This step softens the wax and allows for smooth application. Once warmed, apply a thin, even layer of our steel sealing wax across the surface of the fire poker, ensuring complete coverage to safeguard against rust and corrosion effectively. The wax adheres easily to the metal, forming a durable seal that enhances the longevity of your fire poker.
At our shop, we take pride in meticulously sealing every fire poker before it leaves our premises. This ensures that each tool is ready to withstand the rigors of regular use in both indoor and outdoor settings. Our food-grade sealing wax not only protects the metal but also adds a touch of craftsmanship to your fire-tending essentials. By following these simple steps, you can maintain the quality and appearance of your fire poker, ensuring it remains a reliable companion for years of fireside enjoyment.
To maintain optimal protection and preserve the appearance of your fire poker, we recommend applying steel sealing wax every 6 months to 1 year, depending on usage and storage conditions. We seal every fire poker meticulously before it leaves our workshop, ensuring it’s initially protected against rust and corrosion. Storing your fire poker indoors, such as in a shed or covered area, can significantly extend the time between sealings by shielding it from the elements and moisture.
However, if your fire poker is frequently exposed to outdoor elements—such as being left stuck in the ground near a fire pit—it may require more frequent sealing, approximately every 2-3 months. This proactive approach helps maintain the integrity of the metal, preventing oxidation and ensuring continued functionality and aesthetic appeal. Regular inspection and reapplication of our food-grade sealing wax will help you enjoy your fire poker for years to come, ensuring it remains a reliable tool for tending to fires with ease and reliability.
