Decided to put the woodburner on last night. Created a stink so we ended up just going to another room. Assumed the chimney needed a clean.
Well....I must have been more tired than I appreciated (I wasn't even drinking). It transpires the smell was made by the brush that my missus put on top that melted! The wooden handle is fine but all the bristles have melted and stuck to the top of the stove.
What would be your plan to try and get it off? I was planning on starting it up again today, remelting it and scraping off then wire wooling what's left when cool and repainting if necessary.
Any better ideas?

Aye I like how the wife gets the blame.
And although my eyes were open
They just might as well be closed

For the avoidance of doubt.....it's all my fault.

A wall paper scraper, some acetone and elbow grease should do the trick no?

I can hear it already, and I'm leaning towards Thaipar's solution here...

That's quite a vivid picture you paint AWP. Brilliant.

Haha awp. That's exactly why I didn't marry a local lass π
Will have to determine whether new wife or new woodburner is the cheapest way ahead.
