I just spray the stove top down with an all purpose cleaner and then scrape with a puddy knife. It may take a few times to get everything totally up since it has been several years of build up.
How do I clean a black range that has many spill overs in one spot? They are all crusty and are impossible to clean even when scrubbing very hard. Nothing seems to work.

I use a spray by Dawn. You spray the area and wait, wiping it right off. I use it on pots, pans, my stove top and inside my oven, even on the door. I'm sorry I don't have the full name--I'm out at the moment. It might by Dawn Power Scrub. It's in a navy blue bottle. (09/05/2006)

Make a paste of baking soda and water, and scrub with a damp paper towel. For really stubborn spots, use a 3M Pad...but use with care so you don't scratch the finish. Usually a few minutes of the baking soda scrub is all that is necessary.

ONE WORD! EASY OFF OVEN CLEANER! THIS REALLY WORKS! Spray on stains, let it set for 15-20 mins., then turn burner on high for 30-40 secs. (it will bubble). Turn burner off and let it completely cool (important step) it will get kind of hard crusty. Then just wipe clean with a wet towel or rag. I tried everything to remove tough tough stains, nothing worked then i read this and tried it! My stove top looks brand new again try it! (12/03/2007)

How do I get burnt caked on food off of stove top burners? From what I understand it has been there a couple of months!

If the food is on the stove itself and not on the element here's what you do, grab a cup-full of washing power (tide) and add water to make into a paste the consistency of custard and put it on the caked on food. Leave for a few hours and then come back and add a little more water as it would have dried out and give it some elbow grease (good scrub). (07/24/2006)
Pour straight ammonia onto the stove top and cover it with a plastic trash bag, tape it down if you need to. Let it sit overnight; ventilate the room well. In the morning, it will all wipe off easily with a cloth. You can do the same for your oven racks and stove pans, just douse with ammonia in a plastic trash bag and let it sit outside overnight.

Get a really hot rag also. Turn the oven on for a while, turn it off lay a rag on the crud and in a few wipe off. It works, I learned this at a restaurant. (08/26/2006)

I saw this or I would not believed how easy this worked (and than used it on my own dirty stove top!). Soak the silver rings and the plates from under the stovetop burners in a large pan with water and dishwasher soap, just at the simmer stage. Than just wipe off the burn on stuff! (08/28/2006)
