Use a paint brush to apply the blacking. Just before using stove polish, mix a tablespoonful of gasoline with a saucer of polish. Be sure the stove is cold and never use gasoline around heat. Turpentine is also good to use with polish. Clean the steel parts with boiled linseed oil on a woolen cloth, and clean the nickle with whiting and ammonia. If a stove is washed, then rubbed well with a few drops of linseed oil on a woolen cloth, it will never need polishing.
