Question:

Re: Sealant I have a stone fireplace with steel doors. There is a gap between the steel and stone. My question is what to use as a sealant as this gap is creating unwanted drafts. --- Greg Dickinson --- [email protected] --- EarthLink: It's your Internet.



Answer:

Either hi-temp (usually black or orange) silicone caulk, fiberglass insulation with the paper backing pulled of, or even some regular mortar (masonry)
