Curator Slate and Cast Iron Blacking Solution

This stuff is fab! I used it on a black Italian marble clock approx 200 years old, it had water stains, was faded and a bit fusty looking in places. This paint is quite runny and is easily applied with a cloth, be careful to apply the coats evenly as extra bits show up and you’d need another full coat. We followed instructions and brought the clock back to new. We didn’t want it too flashy/wanted to keep its character and it has. Very happy with this stuff!

It seems to work OK on initial use. However the packaging is not really adequate as it was just packed in an envelope and looks like it had been squashed causing it to leak.

Used it on my slate hearth that was a bit too grey for my liking. Worked an absolute treat! Was sceptical but it came out so nicely and much darker. Didn’t use a lot of the product either. Applied with a microfibre cloth -would recommend.

Still on trial for suitability looks good

Excellent quality, totally transformed my antique slate clock.

I am using this on a floor and it’s fantastic. It’s only a little bottle but I’ve lost track of how many slates it’s done. (Big slates in a Victorian house) it’s great!!!!

USED FOR RE POLISHING SLATE CLOCK ( AS SEEN ON UTUBE ) , JUST BEGUN BUT LOOKS GOOD , PS. REMEMBER TO WEAR GLOVES ,ITS NOT EASY TO WASH OFF !

Good finish to our rather dirty and scratched black slate hearth. Our neighbour came round and was impressed, the downer for me was when he told me he used plain cooking oil to clean and rejuvenate his similar slate hearth a week earlier, went around his house and yep it was just as good...

This product was my last ditch effort for remediating the stained, horrific slate of our hearth and fireplace surround. No trick in the book could clean the stains. And I dislike the only heat-resistant paint that’s readily available because it’s matte black. After two applications of Slate Blacking, the fireplace and hearth have not only been rejuvenated, but they appear new and have just enough shine (akin to a semigloss). Application was easy (tape off meticulously and wear gloves!) and for two coats I used less than one 4 ounce (120mL) bottle. THANK YOU TO THE SELLERS FOR MAKING THIS AVAILABLE OVERSEAS!! I LOVE YOU FOR IT!!
