Plistex it will be, thanks for the suggestions. I do like that it’s a bit more than just a wash.
Possibly it could fill in some of the hairline cracks that appeared after the Satanite dried. Maybe these cracks really are not an issue.
Now that I know there is likely some trapped moisture still in the insulating blanket between the stainless shell and Satanite. Should I drill a couple 1/8 - 1/4” holes near the edge by the stainless in the Satanite to help release steam? Once I know my forge is all dry, I’ll get the Plistex ordered.
Would there be a better size from one over another in what is available for K-26 insulating bricks? My local places only have the fireplace bricks so it will be an on-line order.
Thanks for the warm Welcome.
“Ouch” for short.
Everyone likes pics. These were some of my inspiration to keep poking at it. A friend donated the stand, the propane tank was intended for another project but might go towards a second forge, and some freebie hand me down hammers. I bought the newer book and the other two were given to me.
