I have a fireplace mantel that is within the proper clearance of my wood insert. Even though the mantel is well above the stove, the wood is becoming discolored from the heat that rises. Would sticking this product to the bottom of my wood mantel keep...

No, I would not use this product for that. To be truthful, it would really look ugly. Instead, I would fabricate an aluminum "flare" the would channel the heat away from the mantel. I would position it on the back of my wood stove angled toward the front. If you are creative, you can even make a decorative one that has a fancy outer border.

We used this paint on our firewall in our fire place and it worked great. Really gave the fireplace a new, clean look. The paint is a flat finish so using it for stove grates may not look attractive. Our gas stove grates have a factory high gloss finish and wipe clean very easily. I suggest you go to Rutland's website and see if the paint is available in other finishes. Good Luck.

I see what you mean and I assume it's normal as my oven's feet are the same. I have no problem having it on an old wooden table. It never has marked the table top or shown any scorch marks. This is a very well-insulated little oven, and only the glass front and the top surface get hot enough to be careful of. When I first got it, I checked out possible heat transfer from the oven bottom and there was none which is why I feel safe in using the wooden table for it.

I think it would cause the wire grid at the bottom of the stove to overheat and bend. Even using wood as fuel causes some distortion of the grid.

I don't think that will effect its operation, except that the heat may tend to stay up towards the upper side of the piping and decrease the efficiency of the heat exchanger. If you burn extremely dry wood you shouldn't have any problem with creosote, so don't burn new or wet wood to avoid this. If at all possible, I'd try to install it in a vertical section.

The only way we have used it is over a camp fire (above the coals) just be sure to have plenty of liquid to keep it from boiling dry.....to keep it from dis-coloring apply a thin coat of dish soap on the outside...that works great to keep it looking new

I noticed that it caused my cabinet to separate, which means there is a lot of heat generated from the top, so I moved it out from underneat the cabinet and it's fine. I have a granite counter top so it's ok on that.I love the oven!!

I would try to contact the manufacturer. I have not used it on wood that has been treated for heat/water resistance. There may be chemicals in the two that do not mix well.

I would not recommend this because it was not intended to sustain high heat and fat. It might cause buckling. I believe it would stain the both interior and exterior finish as well.

This unit is intended for use with a Real Flame mantel, or so it is labeled. I have a carpenter friend completing a custom mantel for this firebox, so can't honestly answer this yet. I will say I ran the unit twice standing freely --alone and without being encased in a mantel--as it is out of the box. The heat is driven outward by a fan; little to no heat was generated on sides or top of my unit.

We used it around fireplace & it looks fantastic!!!! We used grout - nothing to seal it with.... However, you might want to seal it if used for kitchen Backsplash.

So far I have only tried this on walls. And the surface was so smooth so it stuck perfectly. May be the surface of the wooden cabinet might be not too smooth. Try it on some smooth surface.

I put something under unit on my wood table but not for the heat. I just don't want the foot to leave any marks when I swivel it open or closed.It gets hot enough to melt chocolate or cheese and sauté onions & peppers. This a wonderful invention.

I have the same issue, I was worried it would ruin the wood but I cleaned it according to their instructions and it is holding up great. I have various other elevated stands for my big, sloppy dogs and this is still one of the better products I have found for them.

It would probably stick. My concern is that the wood is porous and it might absorb the moisture from the paste on the back. Maybe take a small piece and put it on and wait til it dries thoroughly (a couple of days) and see what happens. If not you could seal the wood where that wouldn't be a concern. Hope this helps. It is beautiful wallpaper I love mine.

Clean wood of dust, dirt, etc., and, yes it should hold..... Better on smooth wood, tho'. Firewood type, not sure...

The top of the island we have is wooden, and it's not a butcher's block. They do make a model with a marble top (you'd have to check with someone who bought it for advice). I would not place hot pans on the wood. We use a pot holder or trivet to prevent burning the surface, as wood is more susceptible to this versus a granite top, for instance.
