Last night I built a nice, hot fire to chase away the cold and dampness that have settled onto central Illinois. A few hours into it, I had a nice glowing bed of hot coals. I wanted to move some of them to the back of the fireplace, so I got out the little shovel that came with our fireplace tools (shovel, broom, poker, tongs) and started shifting things around.
It didn't take 5 seconds for the shovel to catch on fire. For pete's sake.
If you were the company that made fireplace shovels, wouldn't you think it smart to paint them with fireproof paint?
