Painting the Stove, Conclusion
Nov. 13th, 2021 11:51 amWhile I was in Montreal, Lisa tackled the paint job on our fireplace. The test section showed no harm from when we set a fire in the stove, so while I was gone, Lisa had an opportunity to repaint without affecting me.

The paint had plenty of time to cure before I got back on Thursday. Inasmuch as it was colder inside the house than outside, Lisa set a fire so that when I got home, the living room was very comfortable. Although I let the fire go out overnight Thursday, I restarted it on Friday and kept it going. The results of the painting look good to me.
( New Paint )
I'm pleased with the results. The copper paint on the flashing nicely sets off the fireplace insert from the rock in which the insert sits. Lisa did a good job on this, and I'm grateful to her for doing it. It also makes the backdrop of my Zoom calls more attractive, too. Who needs an artificial backdrop when you've got this lovely fireplace?
