Magic on sticky greasy pans but the nuclear option
I walked into my local restaurant supply store and asked for the strongest pan cleaner they owned. I was tired of the old elbow grease method with soap, degreaser, steel wool, and magic erasers. I'll admit I was still skeptical. So skeptical I didn't even take a before photo of this absolutely wrecked sheet pan on the awful front side. Gave it a good coating and left it for 15 minutes. Came back and rinsed it under water - chunks started coming off with just that much and a quick swipe with steel wool and it was 100% gone. Incredible. This was baked on polymerized grease that all the scrubbing wouldn't take off and it just wiped clean. When I flipped to the back I cleaned half and took a photo just to show the difference on the bottom cleaned half and top uncleaned one. Also unlike hand scrubbing with steel wool since it comes clean in just one wipe and you don't even get scrub marks.<br /><br />Now to note this stuff is NASTY. If it can take grease like that imagine how bad it is for you when oven cleaner isn't even that fast. I did this in my sink wearing gloves, goggles, and a half respirator. The can warns you to be extra sure you ONLY get this on metal as it can utterly ruin nonstick coatings, paint, plastic, countertops, and will burn your skin on contact. I repeat do not mess around with this stuff but absolutely use it if you take the right precautions and want factory clean pans.
