After that, glue the mosquito wire with iron glue so that it does not shift easily. Then, apply iron putty to all parts of the porous stove body so that it is covered. Make sure there are no more holes.

If you feel that the porous part of the stove body has been completely covered, dry the stove body until the putty is completely dry. Next, smooth the surface of the putty layer using sandpaper until smooth. The owner of the YouTube account Berbagi Dunia also explained that if there are still parts that are perforated, you can repeat the putty and dry process.
