hello, Admin if I posted in wrong location I do apologies. I have a old box wood stove/heater. Its old and rusted but I think I may be able to save it. My question is what do I use to seal the sides up where the panels meet?
 
Can you tell what brand it is?

Furnace cement can be used on joints.

Post some pics we may be able to help. To fix it you will need to completely disassemble it. Then either clean it up with wire brushes and wheels or sand blast it. Then reassemble with good quality furnace cement and paint it.
