I recently moved into an older house and have a hollow metal coal fireplace that is in a hell of a state.It is stained badly,it looks like the top layer is peeling in places and has drips of something down the front of it.I want to leave it in place but what can I use to strip it without knackering what is underneath? Would I then need to cover it with lacquer or paint to stop it rusting or just polish it up.Any help would be greatly appreciated as I don't have a clue what to do!
