  1. Would you recommend going with kaowool instead of the soft brick
  2. thank you for the response Yes I am using k23’s on the sides and roof and then hard brick on the floor which I believe is rated to 3k. I saw the same process of covering ifb with Satanite and then itc on YouTube( I’ll post the link if I can find it again). I figured the satanite would offer enough protection for the k23’s, but I could be wrong this is my first attempt at making a forge capable of welding. Yes I made sure to spritz the brick with water on the first coat and made sure to apply thin layers roughly 1/16 inch.
  3. Just recently finished construction on my new propane forge, I have it lined with k23 soft bricks on the sides and roof, and hard fire brick for the floor. I decided to line the forge with satanite with plans for a final coat of ITC coating, striving for forge welding temps. I did my best to follow the mixing/curing instructions that came with the satanite but just ended up chasing cracks with every new coat, and actually ended up with an entire section on one side bulging out. Not sure if I had the moisture content incorrect or if I tried to cure it to quick. I tried to play it safe by doing thin coats and made the mix consistency thicker than recommended and took extra care and time when curing and bringing the forge up to temp. Any help would be great!
