Sergey, why do you torch the Nextel? Are you buying the stuff that isnt kiln fired? if so, from what I have read, it would take alot more and alot longer heat than the stove to remove the sizing. If you got it from big tex, it comes kiln treated to remove the toxins. Just curious![]()
By a silly mistake, my nextel is silica, not ceramic. I didn't pay attention to the XS instead of XC. I think it doesn't need to be torched for cleaning, it just helps stiffen it a bit and make it fray less.
