Cleaning the exterior of a Cast Iron Stove: I have one of this and t does have some look like oxidation marks in the exterior (good condition otherwise).

I have heard that there are some liquids or pastes you can apply, graphite based has been mentioned elsewhere and others.

Since I have a long history of respiratory allergies, triggered by chemical smells I was looking for something
smelliness and as close to a natural product as possible.

Thanks in advance!!

A wire brush or wire whell on a drill or grinder works the best and is all natural
