Just wondering if there are some cleaners for the outer surface of steel wood stoves. I have found some pastes and polishes but they say to use only on cast iron. Any brand recommendations would be appreciated. Thanks.

buff it down with a wire wheel and hit it with some stove paint. its rated to 1200F (black) she should look like new afterwards
I just want to shine the stove up. I was wondering if I can use paste or polish on the stove. Warning labels on certain products say not to apply paste or polish to a painted stove. Obviously a steel stove is painted so I guess you cannot use paste and must start over by painting the stove? I just want something simple to get that ashy look off of the stove.
Rutland says this stuff can be used on steel stoves. I would test it on the back of the heat shield first.
