WHY YOU’LL LOVE IT

Bring your brass and copper cookware back to life with P-TAL’s Kalai Kit—a complete, easy-to-use home solution for restoring traditional utensils through tin coating. Kalai, a timeless practice, keeps cooking surfaces safe, non-reactive, and enhances the taste of food. Once a fading art, this technique now returns in a DIY-friendly kit that preserves your heritage pieces and makes them safe for daily use again. Rediscover tradition. Restore with confidence.

What’s Included
  • Certified Tin, also known as Ranga
  • Ammonium chloride, which is also called Naushadar salt.
  • Heat resistant cotton
  • Pitambari cleaning powder
  • Holder or Pakad to hold the utensils
  • An instruction manual explaining the complete process of doing the kalai.
Details
  1. Thoroughly wash the utensil inside out and wipe it dry.
  2. Put it on the stove and give it enough time to heat to the brim. You can check if it's heated to the brim by touching the tin on the brim and seeing if it's melting.
  3. Once the utensil has been thoroughly heated, add the powdered ammonium chloride in the heated utensil. The fumes will immediately begin to rise. Touch the surface of the tin stick on the utensil and rub it using a heat-resistant cloth.
  4. Once you see that it's done evenly, put it under cold running water or inside a tub of cold water; this will lock the kalai on the surface.
  5. In case you notice that some part of the surface is left to be tinned, repeat the process, keeping that area primarily on the heat
CARE AND USE

For everyday care:

  • Wash with mild soap and a soft sponge. The naturally non-stick Malaysian tin lining (kalai) makes cleaning brass and copper cookware easier and gentler than other metals.
  • Avoid abrasive cleaners or steel wool

To maintain the shine:

  • Use our de-oxidising cleaning solution or a natural homemade scrub (atta + salt + lemon)
  • Dry thoroughly after each wash to prevent watermarks

Note: The tin lining (kalai) is a traditional method that may fade with time. A re-kalai can restore its surface and continue its long life.

An Amazing Solution for the Kalai Problem

Absolutely love this Kalai Kit from P-TAL! It took me just 15 minutes to achieve a super smooth tin coating on my Brass Kadhai from the comfort of my home. The kit is quite comprehensive and the instruction manual covers the process very clearly. I've been looking for kalai services for a while now but couldn't find anyone near me. This kit has been a complete game changer. Thank you P-TAL! ❤️

I never thought I could do kalai myself, but I checked the P-TAL website and reached out to their customer support. They guided me so patiently and even shared a video that helped me do it easily at home. The instructions were simple, and now my copper handi , brass kadai looks shiny again. I feel so proud that I restored it with my own hands—such a satisfying experience!!

Old-school cooking ka naya twist!

Pehle toh socha tha yeh process mushkil hoga, par Kalai Kit bilkul user-friendly nikli. Everything needed diya hua - ranga, naushadar, cleaning powder, pakad, everything. Instructions follow karne mein koi tension nahi. Kadhai ek dum chamak gaayi, aur ab cooking mein bhi woh purana flavour aa gaya. Isse zyada kya chahiye? Ek dum authentic aur practical solution hai yeh. Highly recommend karunga.

Bilkul Time-saving aur Shandar

Mujhe yeh Kalai Kit bilkul time-saving aur shandar lagi. Sab kuch ek box mein mil jaata hai - tin, naushadar, cleaning powder, cloth sab. Instruction manual bilkul clear hai. Bas stove pe kadai garam karo, rub karo, thanda paani se saaf karo aur dekho! Utensil naya lagne lagta hai. Bahut hi easy aur nostalgic experience raha. P-TAL ne meri kitchen ko traditional feel de di. Totally worth buying!
