    Aladdin heater - is this the right place?

    I did not know that about washing-up liquid! I think I will try the degreaser very carefully on a non-obvious area.

    Aladdin heater - is this the right place?

    I fired up the lamp tonight, on the principle that it should be used every few weeks, and I see large black spots on the mantle. I don't remember...
