Will your black fire pits eventually rust?

Your black fire pit is finished with a high temperature black painted surface that is resistant to heat but not water. If left uncovered in the elements, it will age to a natural rust finish over time and stabilise, requiring no further maintenance. Some people love the fact that their black fire pit will go through a gradual phase of rusting, this can make a great looking addition to your space. If you would prefer that your fire pit stays its beautiful sleek black, you can use rub back the surface and apply a coat of heat resistant potbelly black paint each season to keep it looking its best!

For longevity, we recommend to store your fire pit under cover or out of the elements when you’re not using it. You can also purchase a rain cover for your fire pit which will help extend the lifespan of your fire pit - we offer rain covers for our range of fire pits here.
