mathnerd Posted April 11, 2017 Share Posted April 11, 2017 Searching on google is confusing me - baking soda is alkaline and not to be used say some articles, vinegar is acidic and not to be used say some websites, even windex, bar keepers friend and 409 cleaners are bad apparently - so, how can I get baked grease out of aluminum surfaces? I tried dawn and hot water and it does not do the task. Please help! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TammyinTN Posted April 11, 2017 Share Posted April 11, 2017 (edited) Oops....I missed this part. I just make a pot of super hot/boiling water and put it on there with Dawn and let it soak. Sometimes it takes a couple of rounds, but it usually gets the job done. Edit to add--I would probably use a little bit of brillow pad and then hit it again with the hot water/dawn so as not to ruin your items.

popmom Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 (edited) I recently saw a post on Facebook about this. One of those "cleaning hacks" things. They filled the metal baking pan with a little dish detergent and water and added a DRYER SHEET. I tried in on one of my bad pans--lo and behold--IT WORKED. I let it soak with the dryer sheet for several hours. If I can find a link to the video, I'll add it. ETA: just google "dryer sheet to remove burnt on food" Edited April 12, 2017 by stephensgirls Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SparklyUnicorn Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 elbow grease with a good scrubby sponge when that fails...throw in trash and buy new ones! Sometimes baked in grease just never comes off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
