And I thought I was crazy wandering what was going on with my pans. It's the spray! I have soaked-boiled went through a box of SOS pads and it's the freaking spray. Thank for the post because I wont use the spray again. It took for ever to get it off my cast iron skillet and then I had to season it all over again. The spray is gone today.

There are certain pans one never uses cooking sprays on but you have to use oil based coatings, like cast iron. I use steel wool and "elbow grease".

I have some expensive cookware and the manufacturer help line told me to never use cooking spray on them. They are not the non stick kind. The spray will build up over time and will be very hard to get off I was told. I have some other old non stick skillets and I have to use cooking spray on them or food will still stick. The spray is build up on those I suspect. If I don't cook on low temperatures everything will stick non matter what type fry pan I use. Can't even cook in iron skillets. Very frustrating.

Soak the pan in hot water with Cascade Liquid for dishwashers for a couple of hours. It should come off.

I am a middle school Foods teacher. I have a problem with the cooking spray getting baked on the cookie sheets and other baking pans. It leaves a yellowish layer that just does not come off with regular scrubbing. Any ideas for cleaning this problem?

How do I clean cooking spray off of cookie sheets? I have a nonstick cookie sheet which I used and the cooking spray will not come off of it. It's a mess. It didn't even come off in the dishwasher. Any help would be appreciated.

Have you tried the 'fight fire with fire' method? Spray cooking spray on the sheet; wait a couple of minutes, then see if it will remove. I recommend a non-scratching scrubber. (10/14/2009)
