I was thinking of using it on my outdoor fireplace which is metal. Does anyone know if it is flammable after it completely dries?

Not really, but the coating will discolor and melt off. I would advise against using this on something exposed to flame. At the least it would be a waste of effort putting the coat on.

I'm not sure if it's flammable, but I checked the bottle and there is no warning signs. I love this product and even with my sensitive skin, I have never felt any irritation.

This product should be able to be used on the exterior of a fireplace, so long as it is Concrete, Block, Brick, Stucco, Stone, or Wood. Since it is a waterproofing agent, it should be able to be used "on top of" a fireplace also, since heat should hot affect its performance. Reapplication is dependent on many variables (density of material, horizontal/vertical surface, number of coats applied, temperature at application, exposure, wear factors, etc) so only time will tell. When the product is no longer preforming, it is time to reapply. Under the best of circumstances they warrant it for 10 years (see conditions) but I'm only hoping to get 2-3 in my application.

The only way we have used it is over a camp fire (above the coals) just be sure to have plenty of liquid to keep it from boiling dry.....to keep it from dis-coloring apply a thin coat of dish soap on the outside...that works great to keep it looking new

HI, CoolGramma613!I don't know if it's flammable but you could e-mail the company [http://weiman.com/Contact-Us.aspx] to ask them. This product has a pleasant fragrance which is not overwhelming at all and does not need ventilation during use. It works VERY well; not disappointed in all the years it has been used. Great product.

I'd have to see the application.. I wouldn't use it near a completely open flame but if draped over something as an insulator without being in contact with the flame I wouldn't see why not...it handles the temperatures from my Firebox with ease and only slight discoloration..

None really. Maybe a little warm. It says you can use it in a zero clearance fireplace. I'll have to tell you that the flame effect is perfect and you do get usable heat. Like any electric heater it uses a lot of current, but I think it's worth it.

I would use it on metal only. It would melt PVC very quickly. If you were very very careful and didn't place the flame very close it might work but again too risky in my mind.

No it's not fireproof. It's just sheet metal with some foam padding. There's no fire-proofing material of any sort.

If it is used for an actual fire, the heat could compromise its strength, rendering it unsafe for another usage. For such a low price, might as well replace it after a fire.

No, as it has no fire resistant insulation. It will not catch fire as it is made from steel but the contents would be damaged if it was in a fire.

As great as Mortite is, it is NOT intended for high temp applications!! I can't tell you the actual melting point but I can tell you that you can set it on fire with an open flame. Do not use it around your fireplace, please.

I have no idea but would not try it myself. The material seems to be a hard plastic. You would need to contact Rivers Edge customer service to confirm temperature rating. Another idea is to check with a store that specializes in selling fireplace components and accessories.

I haven't but it should work, it is listed as nonflammable and its primary function is to ensure proper contact and keep corrosion down so it should do the job.

It is cast iron, so you should be able to, but it will most likely ruin the paint where the flame touches it.

Hello,this stuff is Flammable as is all foam products.If the heat from the radiator is very low to the place where you are using this foam,it should be alright.As you know after this dries you can cut excess off with a razor (Careful),sand if needed and then painted.Personally,I do not think that the heat will be hot enough to ignite this foam,Especially if it is blocked by the baseboard.

I have used this product only in an enclosed fireplace (screened) , but you should check with the manufacturer about this question.
