Get Squeaky Clean Fireplace with BKF
Make all your cleaning worries disappear with Bar Keeper Friend as your cleaning partner with the unpredictable shifts in climate change, the approaching winter promises to be a harsh one especially in the Northern areas of Pakistan and the cities of Punjab. Freshly cut logs will be readied for fireplaces and the warmth and coziness that these fires will usher will allow families to sit around it and bond over hot chocolate and peanuts.
Yet, before we begin using our fireplaces again this winter, let us make sure they are cleaned up to look bright and chipper with the use of Bar Keepers Friend—a superior hard surface cleanser that removes rust, mineral deposits and other tough stains with gentle, bleach-free formulations.
A fireplace can add warmth and coziness to any home, but it’s important to keep it clean and well-maintained to ensure it functions safely and effectively. Over time, soot and ash can build up in the fireplace, making it difficult to keep it clean. That’s where Bar Keepers Friend (BKF) comes in – this powerful cleaning product can help you get your fireplace squeaky clean and looking like new again.
Here are the steps to follow to get your fireplace clean with BKF:
Before you begin cleaning, remove any debris from the fireplace, such as ash, wood, and other debris. Use a shovel or dustpan to remove as much debris as possible.
Once the debris is removed, wet the surface of the fireplace with water. This will help to loosen the soot and make it easier to clean.
Sprinkle a liberal amount of BKF onto the wet surface of the fireplace. Use a scrub brush or sponge to work the BKF into the surface, paying special attention to any areas with stubborn stains or buildup.
Allow the BKF to sit on the surface of the fireplace for 5-10 minutes. This will give the product time to break down the soot and other grime.
After the BKF has had time to work, use your scrub brush or sponge to scrub the surface of the fireplace, working in a circular motion. Rinse the surface thoroughly with water, ensuring that all of the BKF is removed.
Use a clean, dry cloth to dry the surface of the fireplace. This will prevent any water spots or streaks from forming.
That’s it! By following these simple steps, you can get your fireplace looking clean and new again with BKF. Remember to always follow the instructions on the label when using cleaning products, and wear protective gloves and eye wear when necessary.
Here are three ways in which BKF will help keep your fireplace in top notch condition:
Clean up Glass Fireplace Doors or Inserts
A glass fireplace door is surely an aesthetic inclusion to your interior, yet it can be a hassle to clean the soot and stains off the glass. The BKF Soft Cleanser can tackle gentle stains but for tougher cleaning regimes the BKF Cleanser, which is an original scouring powder, can come in handy. The BKF Cleanser is also potent enough to clean brass, steel and copper
How to use the BKF Soft Cleanser and Cleanser on a glass fireplace ?
Remove the doors/insert and place flat atop newspapers or a trash bag. Use a damp cloth to remove any loose soot. In case of a Soft Cleanser, squeeze a small amount onto a damp sponge and spread the product evenly across the surface. After 15 to 20 seconds, scrub the surface lightly. Wipe with a damp cloth or sponge and buff glass dry with a microfiber cloth or paper towels.
In case of BKF Cleanser follow the same steps listed above. For really tough stains mix powdered cleanser with water to make a paste and apply it to the required area.
Spruces up Fireplace Tools
The BKF MORE Spray and Foam comes in the convenience of a spray bottle to clean brass fireplace tools like tongs, pokers and shovels. We recommend that you put the tools on a newspaper before spraying them with cleaner. Allow 15 to 20 seconds for the cleaner to penetrate the stains and scrub lightly. Wipe clean with a damp sponge and buff fireplace tools with a soft cloth or microfiber towel.
Spruces up Mantles, Surrounds, and Hearths
A granite, marble or polished natural stone mantle, fireplace surround, or hearth lends class and exclusivity to your home, yet it may be a grueling task to keep it clean and shining.
The BKF Granite & Stone Cleaner & Polish Spray is the ideal partner to keep the entire fireplace area sparkling clean. Simply squirt the cleaner onto the stone and let it rest for 15 to 20 seconds. Then clean lightly in a circular motion with a soft pad and wipe clean with a damp sponge, towel, or microfiber cloth. Dry the surface with a soft cloth.
