| 1426653 | 2016-09-30 03:48:00 | My g/f's bbq is seriously rusty, and the commercial cleaners have been useless. Do you folks have any bright ideas on how to get the plate and grill clean, please? | Greg (193) | ||
| 1426654 | 2016-09-30 03:52:00 | Lots of heat and rub with oil....... you could try the same procedure on the BBQ as well Ken :) |

But I use a heavy duty wire brush first, then wipe with cooking oil/heat and plenty of paper towels and newspapers. Then finally might spray with "simple green" BBQ cleaner that I bought from the clearance shed. |

| 1426660 | 2016-10-01 00:50:00 | The oil and salt method I found online worked a treat - gave the plate and grate a mild scrub with the wire brush, heated the bbq for 15 minutes, basted the surfaces with oil, then added a lot of salt over the surfaces. When it cooled a bit wiped scraped it then wiped it with newspaper then paper towel. I'll repeat it shortly to get it close to immaculate, but so far very happy with the result. Happy happy T-bone steaks this weekend! The only prob was just temporary - silly igniter took quite a few attempts to work - considering it's been dormant all winter was understandable. :wub |

I got a pretty good scrubber, but she doesn't do barbecues. :( |
