Operation And Use:
Sunjel™is easy to use. Simply Shake the can, tear off the label and pop the top just like a paint can. To start the fire, light the Sunjel™ with a long match or barbeque lighter. To extinguish the flame, use the convenient manual shut-off that comes with most Sunjel fireplaces. The only safety precaution is to allow the fireplace, patio burner or insert to cool 30 minutes before re-lighting or disposing of the cans. Sunjel™ is an alcohol product so it can be safely stored indoors at room temperature or cooler according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Sunjel should be used within one year of purchase for maximum performance and ensure safety. Lastly, Always burn Sunjel in the original can. Never pour the Sunjel into a fuel box or any other container. This product is only safe if these directions are strictly followed. Never use for cooking purposes.

Real Flame:
Gel Fuel: No Mess, No Fuss
If you dislike the smoke and soot left behind by regular wood burning fireplaces, you might want to look into gel fireplaces. They look realistic and feature real flames fueled by gel fuel. Gel fires give off heat just like a wood fire, but they don’t cause any mess and can be burned right in the tin, making them super simple to use.
Real Flame is what we use in our gel fireplaces. It’s a thickened premium grade isopropyl alcohol gel fuel which will not liquefy in the tin and offers a long lasting flame that crackles like a wood fire. It’s also environmentally friendly, so you don’t have to feel guilty about firing up your fireplace. Gel fires can be set into fake logs to offer a realistic look to your fire pit, as well, and you simply replace the tins as needed when the fuel burns down. One tin should last about 2.5 hours, but you can simply cap it to turn the fire off earlier. No waiting around to make sure the last coals are out . . . just cap the tin and you’re done.
Another advantage of gel fireplaces is that they are very cost effective. These days, finding wood to burn can be costly, so it’s worth looking into alternatives like Real Flame gel fuel. It’s also quite portable, easily moved from room to room, so if you invest in gel fires and fireplaces, you’ll be able to enjoy crackling flames in any room of your home.

Made in the U.S.A.,
Real Flame is made from pure, premium grade isopropyl alcohol and thickeners to enhance stability. Real Flame is the safest, most viscous (thick) gel fuel available on the market. It is not liquid and will not break down, separate or liquefy as quickly as other brands. To maintain the integrity and stability of Real Flame, all Real Flame gel cans are specially treated to prevent rusting on the inside.
Real Flame is a safe, clean burning gel that is regularly tested by numerous independent labs. Air quality results while burning Real Flame gel fuel fall well below the standards established by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (O.S.H.A.) and the Environmental Protection Agency (E.P.A.). Each batch of Real Flame gel fuel production is closely monitored to ensure the highest quality.
Each can of Real Flame gel fuel is designed to burn for up to 2 ½ to 3 hours long. If you wish to create a fire for a shorter period, simply extinguish the flame and re-cap the can. Re-use any remaining gel fuel for your next fire. For each fire, you may use one to three cans of gel fuel at a time, depending on the size of fire you wish to create. When compared to cartridge style cans, one can of Real Flame gel fuel costs a fraction of the more expensive cartridge style can.
Millions of consumers can’t be wrong. Loyal customers have made Real Flame the leading gel fuel on market today.
