Anybody that knows why it is a bad idea jump in.

Burning off in place didn't work, as it happened while stove still in daily use back in Feb - although with our weather I could still be using it daily - but that's another story for another post. I thought I'd have to resort to scraping so thanks for the info there - and using propane torch sounds good - outside of course. I have the small torch and also the one you attach to a 5 gal tank - a flame thrower. Is either ok or is the big one too much? Don't know what they made that bathrobe out of but I will certainly ask her not to wear it around the stove - or perhaps anything else for that matter.

Tried scrapping it off but it was very stubborn. So I just continued using it and it gradually burnt itself off over a period of around two weeks. Worth a try.
