Changing an Aladdin Kerosene Lamp Mantle ~ Unedited ~ Poof! ~ That was a little scary!

[@rgraz4929]

I enjoyed this. Your voice is relaxing. A couple of things. Burn off the blue coating on a new mantle before putting the chimney on. Get the match close to the mantle coating but don't touch it with the match. Mantles are very delicate and bumping them once the coating is burned off, will damage it. And also, after you light the lamp, keep it on a very low setting, only glowing the top of the mantle for a good 10 minutes to warm the entire lamp before raising the brightness. The best and most durable mantles are the new OLD stock made in Brazil ones in the orange & blue boxes which can still be found today. Good luck!
