INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Rinse glass to remove unwanted dust from manufacturing. Dry on towel.
2. For fire pit applications, we recommend an inch of sand or pea gravel at the bottom of the fire pit for a
sturdy foundation.
3. Evenly pour fire glass over your burner. For optimal results, our recommendation is to pour a minimum of
2-inches over your burner, which allows the gas to filter evenly through the fire glass - creating a beautiful
flame.
CARE:
Little or no care is required after setting product. For an instant shine, you may sprinkle with water to remove
dust. Sun covers are recommended for long term sun exposure.
