Clean the Logs
WARNING
Do not handle the logs with your bare hands! Always wear
gloves to prevent skin irritation from ceramic bers. After
handling logs, wash your hands gently with soap and water
to remove any trace of bers. If you do get a “ber splinter”
from the logs or glowing embers, rub the sticky side of tape
over where you suspect the splinter is until you no longer
feel the irritation.
