Cleaning Porcelain Stove Grates

How do I clean bisque porcelain grates on my GE gas stove?

Cleaning Porcelain Stove Grates

I found a product that works, or at least makes it easier to clean. It is called Klean-Strip Multi-Surface Cleaner. I found it at Home Depot. The grates on my stove were dirty, and I hadn't been able to get them clean. I put them on a piece of aluminum foil that had the edges turned up so the foam as it turned to a liquid would not run off.

After waiting a few minutes, I turned the grates over and let the top of the grates "soak" in the run-off liquid. With the help of some very soft steel wool used very lightly to remove some of the stubborn burned on spills and food, the grates are now clean and look almost like new. (05/08/2009)

My grates on my stove are not porcelain, but I think you could use the method I do, even on porcelain grates. I just place a trash bag in the sink, carefully lay the grates in the bag, pour in about a cup of household ammonia, close the bag with a twist tie, and let it set overnight. In the morning, just remove the grates from the bag.

Be careful to not get a sniff of the ammonia, it is pretty strong stuff. I just pour the ammonia on down the sink drain. The ammonia fumes will soften all the burned on grease and food, so that it should just wash away in hot soapy water. If you have a couple stubborn spots, sprinkle a little baking soda on them and scrub with a wet sponge. If the knobs off your stove are greasy, throw them in, also.
