Default Carbon deposits on gas fire panels - what's problem??

Similarly, I've had the same thing - most of the fire is okay - but
towards the back in the 2 corners I've got black pots on the concrete or
whatever panels.



What's the best way of removing these marks?



An oxidising flame. That'll get it hot enough to burn off the carbon
/and/ provide sufficient oxygen.


Are you saying that something like a blow torch would get it off - or to
sort out the problem causing the soot (provide sufficient oxygen) and
it'll burn the carbon off?
