I did exactly what you recommended. Now all my pans are half clean, what do i need to use at the other half?
rob mieremet 😂😂🤣
rob mieremet, I recommend you drop it off at your neighbor's house to see what happens, haha, Mike ☺
@@KitchenTipsOnline I tried to give them to my neighbour, I got them back clean, but she folded them to fit in the mailbox.
rob mieremet hahahahahahaha
Lmbo thats so cute lol.
You know you need to get a life when it's midnight on a work night and you're enthralled by a video of how to properly clean a cookie sheet!
Haha, but at least you learn something! Mike 🧓
A. K. You don't know how many nights I've like that! Damn TH-cam!!!!
Lol! Exact same!
same Friday night

I'm a Pastry Chef and I've been using your method for almost 15 years now without any problems. You sir have earned yourself another subscriber.
THE CANADIAN GAMER, thank you sir for the kind words and welcome aboard, Mike ☺
Did you wait 15 years before deciding to reward him with that subscription?
LOL
And so have I ! I also use it to clean the little bit of gunk that gets on the insignia of my Stainless steel skillets they always look new with a little bar keeper friend for the rest of the surface
So, what is the magic ingredient in EasyOff ?
My wife is a hair stylist. Several years ago she was complaining about what a pain it was cleaning hairspray crud off her curling irons. I suggested she try the cold oven cleaner product. Worked great! A quick spray and let it sit for a few minute, wipe off. Follow up with a damp cloth to remove cleaner residue 👍
Don't do this on tourmaline or ceramic ones. It takes the coating off
The way I get my sheet pan clean is to bring it to my neighbor who likes to clean things. Leave it for a day and when he brings it back, I have a clean sheet pan. Works every time!
My neighbor does the exact same thing ☺
Glad to see you have a great sense of humor. Take care brother.
A Babbit i
Sounds like an Abbott and Costello shout-out. ☺
If you only had a neighbor who likes to bake.
This showed up in my recommendations and I have no idea why. All I know is that this is something I've always wanted to know but never looked into, I just figured sheet pans were a lost cause until now. I love it!
Joshua Piorier, thank you so much for your feedback and the kind words. I hope you subscribed so that you will be notified when I post a new video in the future, Mike ☺
I use this method my mom thought I was nuts, it really works & used on broiler pan too
@@QueenBlack563 Ha ha, once again your mother underestimated you! Thank you for your feedback, Mike ☺
A.I. already read your mind...
here because I fell in the same dam pit man. not sure how I got here, but now I've added Easy-Off to my Shopping List. I got a nasty looking toaster tray that's been needing cleaning for ages.
Thanks for the tip on cleaning cookie sheets. I obviously have several that need my upmost attention. In the meantime, one of my "tips" for the kitchen is when baking a chocolate cake, ģrease the baking pan and instead of using flour, use cocoa. The unsweetened kind. Gives a really nice flavor to the cake. Also, when baking banana bread, I grease then coat with a mixture of sugar and cinnamon 😋 👌
Hey that's a great trip! I don't do a lot of baking myself but my daughter does. I'm going to pass your tip on to her, thanks, Mike 🧔
I do the cocoa and I am going to be doing the banana bread trick now. Thank you 😊 🏵
NO!!! NO Cinnamon in the banana bread! Cinnamon is for cinnamon rolls and that's it.
@@thooks1234 lots of people put cinnamon
@@thooks1234 My cinnamon toast disagrees with you.
I use dry rubber dishwashing gloves to open jars. Gives you grip with both hands and works every time. I like your kitchen!
I am STUNNED! Not so much by the cleaning product used and the amazing demonstration but by all the hilarious comedians that replied! Real thigh-slappers like, "What do I do with the other half of the pan?!" Reading that comedy gold, milk came gushing from my nose! Another gem, "My neighbor is angry I returned a half clean pan." Stop it, people, you're killing me!!!

Real nut busters Ronnie. I also had, milk, gushing out onto my pans.

I have several serving bowls without lids. Tip for covering large bowls without covers. I buy cheap shower caps from dollar store and cover and store bowls in refrig. These fit well and will stay in place.
Ruth TRAMMELL, that's a great tip! Thank you for sharing, Mike ☺
I do that too. Works great. They even stretch enough to fit a 9 by 13 pan.
My wife does this too. She also makes sure that she takes the free shower caps from the hotel too when on holiday
No need. They have sets of stretchy-rim bowl covers in a nice picnic plaid at the dollar store.
Wow!
That's brilliant! Thanks, Ruth!
I'm off to look for my unused shower caps!
Love from India.
Here's a cleaning tip: A while back, I burned brown basmati rice on the bottom of my farberware pan. Scrubbed & scrubbed, it wasn't coming off. A friend told me to try letting the pan soak in classic Coke overnight. It worked like a charm, the acidity ate through all of the baked on crud, and my favorite pan is like new again.
Excellent tip! Thanks for sharing I'm going to try it myself, Mike 🧔
@@KitchenTipsOnline You're quite welcome! Although, after witnessing that level of acidity, I'm a bit reluctant to drink the stuff anymore, lol....
Yep, that is exactly what I have been using for at least ten years to keep my oven pans clean. It just came to me one day that if it could clean an oven, then it should have no problem cleaning those baked on bits of food from pans. When I saw how well it worked it became my go/to for cleaning up stuff nothing else would touch. Sometimes it helps to use what is called a Stainless Steel Sponge instead of Brillo pads. Of course it may leave larger visible scratches than would a Brillo pad, but it will take much less elbow grease to get those hard baked on issues like he had in that lower right corner which he never fully removed.
That is an excellent suggestion. Thanks for the tip, Mike 🧔
I figured this out years ago, when I had to clean my oven. It does work, and I also use it to clean the bottom of my pots and frying pans. It really works.
Thank you Josephine for taking the time to leave feedback. I appreciate it, Mike 🙂
Did this in England and it worked like a charm ! Thank you dude! Just make sure you are in a well ventilated room!
Thank you very much for your feedback in the kind words. Mike ☺
That was my concern: Ventilation. Easy Off I believe says to use only in a "well-ventilated room" because the fumes can be quite toxic. If I tried this method in my commercial BBQ dish pit it might cause a catastrophe. But I can't really take these cook sheets home to do it. Restaurants probably think it's just an appearance issue and doesn't really effect the taste of the food or efficiency of the cooking process.
That is a great idea ,I would never thought of that. I just recently started using Dawn power wash on the bottom of my pots and pans , it does wonders and you don’t even have to scrub(which I do). Showed my mom and she was amazed. She went and bought several bottles and used them all within a few days.
Summer, thanks for your feedback, Mike 🧔
I have used S.O.S. pads for 60 yrs. for pots and pans, cookie pans. I started using Easy-off to make it easier , about 20 yrs. ago. I totally recommend these. Thanks.
Thanks for your endorsement Joyce, I appreciate it, Mike 🙂
My grandmother would have shot you if you did this to her pans. They were much like cast iron. Well seasoned and non stick because of that. Oh and the "sheet pans" with the about 1/2 inch raised sides are Jelly Roll pans. A cookie sheet has no sides. She corrected me on this as a kid a lot. She was a professional baker. Some things stick with you.
YES INDEED -- my grandma also used "tin-foil" and she had about 200 rolls in her cupboard when she passed away. Now I have it all -- "tin-foil" some of grandma's pans and no issues. When pans get old and used up, I use for catch basins in garage for leaky oil from wife's car or when I drain oil from lawnmower. Sometimes I wash pan with gasoline and reuse in the house if i am short on pans whilst baking cookies or flat breads.
Gross
That's just cooked food not seasoning
I remember washing a pot for my parents. When I asked my mom if she bought a new pot, she told me that she had it for 10 years! After asking her what her secret was, she said, "Barkeeper's Friend!" Work's like a charm~
Actually Bar Keepers Friend does a very good job accept it does require a lot more elbow grease, Mike 🧓
My grandmother use to do this when we were kids & this was in the 70's & does wonders in my everyday life as well.
Gary, your grandmother is definitely on the ball! Thanks for sharing, Mike 🧔
My mom was a great cook, but like every cook a pan would get burned stuff stuck to the bottom. She would put baking soda, 1/4 cup or so and enough water to boil for at least 10 minutes in the pan and set it to boil. After ten minutes or more if it's really burned on and rinse. It worked every time. Thank you for the tip on the pans, I have more than a couple that need real cleaning. 🙃
When I burn something in a sauce pan I just put baking soda and hot water in it and let it sit in the sink overnight. It comes right out the next day.
My mother taught me the same thing!
Ive done this for yrs .it also works on the bottoms of heavy stainless steel cookware. Glad too see iam not the only one who does this.
elaine phleps, You are definitely on the ball! Thank you for your feedback, Mike ☺
Keep used, but not used up, Steel wool soap pads in a baggie in the freezer between uses. They won’t rust and one really lasts a long time before worn out.
Great tip, thanks 🧔
This has been my holy grail for years. I’ve experimented with every solvent and cleaning product I could think of including the original EZOff oven cleaner which I occasionally use on my stainless cookware when I scorch something badly. Oven cleaner seems to be the only product that can eat through the burnt-on polymerized oils and fats. However it does ruin the aluminum. The trick here is the “Fume Free” version which frankly doesn’t work as well in the oven. I incorrectly assumed it would have same negative effect on my sheet pans and was ecstatic to find that I was wrong. It worked great and didn’t damage pans at all. It does require more effort that the original full-fume version, but no more that I was already expending with dish soap and steel wool pads which never removed the baked-on blackness. Huge kudos on this tip! This is actually the first video review worthy of the time it took to write. One note worth mentioning is that shiny new pans don’t cook quite the same as the discolored ones so you may have to adjust cook time or temperature a little bit. There are plenty of videos that describe this phen in more detail.
I just clean the inside of the pan and not the bottom of the fan. That helps a lot with the browning of food.
I clean my sheet pans by putting them in the oven during an oven heat clean. They come out great. No chemicals. No scrubbing.
I know have a self cleaning one as well. I will pop them in the oven. Thanks for the tip.
They will warp and be useless. Don’t do,this.
I do the same.
@Bercilak de hautdesert try it; let me know how much you spend on replacement sheets. I worked in a restaurant where we cleaned carbon steel pans this way, but aluminum will absolutely warp.
i used to do that too but i moved and dont havea self cleaning over anymore but yes that works also
OMG!!! Really!? I have passed this product so many times. I am now going to use it. THANK YOU!!!!
MsDangerous01, thank you very much for the thumbs-up and feedback! I appreciate you taking the time, Mike ☺
Just a tip..I myself have always cleaned my baking pans/sheets the same but that extra baked on gunk that you're scrubbing so hard will come off very easily with boiling water poured over it and scrape off with a spatula! Same with burned pans with food stuck in the bottom, no need for lemon juice or peroxide or other things just simply cover the burned on food with water bring it to a boil and scrape off with a spatula or wooden spoon. It takes very little water and boils fast and comes off quick, happy cleaning😁
disagree. it doesn't with hot water.
I'm gonna blow my parents freaking minds on my next visit.
My dog is already proud of me :3
I've worked very hard to get my sheet pans uniformly black with a natural non stick carbon coating..
Some folk just don't appreciate the work involved in getting a truly matt finish to your pans and just try to clean them back to tasteless, sterile metal surfaces again!
Philistines.
Exactly! No more greasing required. Cookies, etc., slide off. Ta Da!
@@piedpiper7051
I do wash them, so a little oil at times. Which adds to the finish
Those pans he was cleaning were just plain ole fashioned neglected. I Have pans 20 yrs old that are crust free. I’m anal with my cookware. I don’t like dirty greasy pans.

I hadn't even thought of trying Easy Off. I have a stack of pans that I've been avoiding because SOS pads will only go so far in getting all the baked-on build-up scrubbed away. I'm definitely going to try this method. Thank you so much for sharing this tip.
You are welcome! 🧔
To help keep them looking that nice, use parchment paper, it took me several years before I figured that out. 😁
Thanks for this tip also Kim, 🧔
They have reusable silicon sheets now, saves tons of paper and money.
Use aluminum foil
I can’t believe Kim kardashian is that smart
Worked like a charm! I wish I could post before & after photos. My grandfather's stainless steel sheet pan from the 1940s looks fantastic. Made on Cleveland, Ohio USA. It reminds me of him and is sort of funny how we have fond memories with inanimate objects. I may just put it in my burial directives to put this in the casket with me. :) Thanks again!
Veronica, thank you very much for the kind words and taking the time to leave feedback. I would bet you that if you put a sheet pan in your casket when they plant you on the ground that you just might be the only person ever to do that, haha. I appreciate the thumbs up, Mike ☺
Been doing this for years for all my pans, and it's a good way to clean inside grills... Keep up the great work on your channel.

I’ve been doing this for as long as I can remember. Close to 40 years! It also works great on Pyrex glass bakeware. I usually just spray the glassware, let it sit a while then wash off and then I run it through the dishwasher to make sure all residue is off. People ask how my bakeware always looks like new!
Brenda Mallette, Brenda that is a great tip! Especially the part about putting them in the dishwasher, the Pyrex glass bakeware that is. I appreciate the feedback, Mike ☺
Omg thanks for adding this tip. Im doing mine this weekend

Where do you find your Elbow Grease? My dad always used it, but he never shared where he got it or stored it. Thanks!🤣🤣🤣🤣
Haha, it comes from Mother Nature. Thanks for your feedback, Mike ☺
You can find elbow grease in most old old hardware stores. Look in the section marked “WORK-UP A SWEAT”.🦾🦾🦾
Elbow grease is the-amount of strength u put into scrubbing. 😋
Recipe for elbow grease: First you have to shake a leg.
Then step on it, and get the lead out.
Voila!

These transitions give me adult swim vibes.
I'm glad I'm not the only one to uses Easy off. It's a great product now that theres no harsh smell. I use it on all my pots and pans and grills with build-up
Melissa Jones, thank you so much for the thumbs up! Someone in a comment a while back recommend using it as a stain remover. I have a sweater that had a stain on it for years. It is a beige sweater with a rust colored stain. I sprayed it with easy off then let it sit for about 2 hours. Put it in the washing machine and the stain was gone. So yes, I I'm also a big fan of easy off, Mike ☺
Should wear gloves tho so its not absorbed into ur skin
It's lye. The danger is not absorption, but caustic burns. @@denisegirmer4550
Camas Same idea tho , Camas-Exposure to the skin🙄
@@borderlineiq This is the best comment in the comment section and needs more attention. If people know what they're working with at least they can research it. I was pretty hesitant about this method because I don't like stinky chems but I read that they've cut the smell back and now that I know what's in it I'm comfortable using some safety gloves and doing this myself. As it seems like the best solution.
Thank you for posting this easy and quick method. I've been using 'BAR KEEPER'S Friend' for a few decades. I'm loving the current cream version but the old powder works just as well. Looking forward to more of your tips. I aspire to having a sheet pan sized 'sink' :)
You are welcome! Bar Keepers Friend is a great tool and works well. It just requires way too much elbow grease for me compared to the method demonstrated in the video. Thanks for your feedback, Mike 🧔

Bar Keeper's Friend is the best for cleaning everything.

I turn to TH-cam to figure out what I did wrong.
OMG I have been using ez off for YEARS!!! I thought I was crazy, my friends and family thought I was crazy... But it worked!
I love the way he said I borrowed my neighbors pan, threw the neighbor completely under the bus 😅🤣😅
Ha ha, trust me she was happy when she got a nice clean pan back. Thanks for your feedback, Mike 🧓
I thought the same thing, lol.
Literally.. Just 20 minutes ago I tried to clean my cookie sheet. Gave up within 2 minutes. Finished my dishes, sat down, opened TH-cam and BAM! Problem solved 👌 Thanks
Ha ha, just in time ☺ Mike
Me Too 😉😉😉
I don't wash my baking sheets. Instead, I always use parchment paper when baking with them. If something spills on the sheet, I wipe it off with a paper towel.
I did this as an experiment when I got a new set of baking sheets last Christmas. They still look brand-new!
@J OneLife You can often get parchment and and aluminum foil at the dollarstore nowadays! But, more importantly, if you're just doing something dry like cookies, you can re-use the parchment several times though! (at least twice on each side if not more) before throwing it out. I often re-use my tinfoil too, depending what I used it for.
(And I mean, lots of people buy cooking spray, which is gross and a waste of an aerosol can, and you have to clean greasy overspray off your counter and stove... I was always taught to just wipe oil or margarine on the pans with a piece of waxed paper but it depends what you're doing... if it's sheet baking I'll usually use parchment. If it's like a loaf pan or cake pan, I'll put waxed paper at the bottom to make sure it comes out of the pan smoothly, and then clean the sides.)
@@xiola I rinse out and re use sandwich baggies
@TheReisecup89 Save the dolphins and stuff...
Using parchment paper and/or aluminum foil is way more relaxing than the above procedure. They usually prevent these baked-on occurrences and are perfect cover-ups when they don’t, lol.
You can not always find parchment paper in the hood.
That is amazing thank you when my mom died a few years ago at age 93 I inherited her pans which she had for probably over 50 years her original ones I pop popcorn on top of the stove in a pan well since I'm 74 and not always on the ball I left unattended and not only did I almost burn the house down but it ruined mom's pan I soaked it for a week used everything I could think of and nothing worked to get the burnt off so now I'm rushing to the store to get oven cleaner I am so excited thank you again
This works amazingly well, Side note, since I personally am not a fan of scrubbing, I got some disks from Harbor Freight that fit my cordless drill they are the green scrubbies type so they work perfect without scrubbing. And yeah if you rinse really well after the pan will not pit.
Exactly my thought. Dremel. Having to find ways to not waste what use I have from arthritic hands.
Wow, thanks. Now I have an excuse to go to Harbor Freight. I'm surprised I haven't seen those there. Great tip. I have seen a Dremel brand scrubber at the hardware store but I couldn't justify that purchase but since I already have a few cordless drills around, great idea.
@@Tech-Mark Spot on mate and you'll make the misses happy with her sparkling clean pans
What are these disks called? I want to buy them too
@@TheBostonFern you want green scrubbing discs the color dictates the roughness ask for them at a hardware store or Home Depot Lowe’s anywhere they sell a Dremel tool will carry them

Here's one for Christmas baking time: when making cookie frosting (I make a cream cheese buttercream), use only 1 beater in the mixer, whip the butter before adding the cream cheese. Then beat the butter and cream cheese until smooth and thick. Add the first cup of powdered sugar (my recipe calls for 3 1/2 cups) along with the flavoring extract. Beat until combined and then beat the rest of the powdered sugar in 1 cup at a time. The frosting comes out creamier than when beating the sugar in all at once. Also, I try to make the icing a couple days ahead of time, then refrigerate it until I need it. The longer it chills, the better it tastes.
styx53ocean, thank you so much for your detailed instructions. Although I don't do a lot of baking myself, I'm sure your information will definitely come in handy for the folks who do. I appreciate the feedback, Mike ☺
Why use only 1 beater?
I have been doing this very same thing over the years. It never fails me. Thank you so much for the video -- and I also clean my pans with dish soap afterward.

You just made me want to go do the dishes in the sink lol
MONIQUE ARAYA I know rt. Lol 😂 will save money on not buying new pans all the time
Why didn't I found you earlier! A couple weeks ago a threw two sheets out. And bought some beautiful sparkling new ones. I do actually bake. Bread and so on. The new ones already have some ugly stains starting up. This time I won't wait until they are horrible. I'll keep that easy off under the sink and leave my bar keepers secret in hiding...just for the bar!
Thank you so much!! I'm subscribing to your channel after liking, sharing and saving.
Best to you!
Thank you very much Monica for the kind words the thumbs-up and for sharing. If you don't mind let me make a suggestion to you. If you do a lot of baking, which it sounds like you do, you might consider using stainless steel sheet pans or cookie sheets. I have several half size stainless steel sheet pans that I used most of the time. Here's the great thing about stainless steel, you can put it right in the dishwasher and it comes out sparkling clean. Yes it cost a little more upfront, but the time saved scrubbing and cleaning is well worth it. We have them on our Amazon Affiliate Store and I will include the link so you can check them out if you like, Mike ☺ amzn.to/32KnGNr
Will this work on a smoker water pan, it is very tough to clean after use...the pan has an enamel surface.
I believe that it will work, Mike ☺
Cheryl R Leigh so true! I buy mine from a restaurant outlet and have to get 1,000 sheets at a time. (My friends love that I share) however, I’ve inherited some ugly pans and will try this.

I just watched a video where the lady spoke of seasoning pans. She said the old discolored ones were much more effective for browning roast veg, but new unstained is better for pastries that burn easily on the older stained pans. A bit of a science worth looking into
I find that you can harmlessly clean the controls on the cooker, with vinegar. This also works on the enamel top of the cooker itself(with a bit of dishwash liquid added if the cooker is greasy). Using vinegar in fact is ANTIBACTERIAL too, AND it makes a white cooker nice and white again! All the best, Nygel
Nigel, that's a great trip! Thanks for taking the time to share. I appreciate it, Mike 🧔
@@KitchenTipsOnline if you like my ANTIBACTERIAL tip, about using vinegar to clean persistent stains from splashes of soup, etc. Off cooker controls ,(because it cuts through grease), I saw on television that someone also used vinegar on a sponge, (together with dishwash liquid), on the grill pan of a cooker. This cleans off fat after grilling bacon, etc.!
I use a chainmail scrubby on my cast iron and steel. Love it. Took burnt beans off my stainless in seconds without damaging the pan. Works on aluminum too but you have to get it at right away and not let it sit through multiple bakes.
@@Patricia-zt8ub Not remotely. Takes off grit, not the seasoning.
Ok guys, for everyone looking on how to clean the pots and pans. This guy has been around the bush once or twice, I haven’t even watched the video and I know he knows what he is doing. Don’t sleep on this vid, fam!
Thanks 🧔
It works great! I used it on my toaster oven pan. Extra tip: I sprayed it outside on a paper bag, let it sit outside, cleaned and rinsed it outside as well. No fumes in the house. I used a steel wool but I think a brillo would be better. Using these same steps, next time I would try heating the pan first then spray and probably could clean right away without waiting.
Janine, thank you so much for taking the time to come back and leave feedback. I think heating up the pan or warming up the pan I should say is a very good idea, Mike 🙂
Janine, Brillo and SOS pass are actually steel wool with soap embedded in them. 😊
@@pettytoni1955 I think it's not just soap that's embedded in the pad. I think there may be a fine, abrasive polishing compound, at least in Brillo. I have not used SOS.
Was your neighbor angry when you gave them back a half cleaned tray? :D
Hello, you. Weird place to run into someone from the gaming side of TH-cam.
No way would I do that! She makes great cookies and homemade bread. My guess is if I only cleaned half the pan she would only give me half the cookies and half the bread in the future, haha. Mike ☺

My mom and my grandma taught me to just wash with dishsoap like anything else and don't worry about the baked on grease because it seasons the pan and makes it better over time.
I have my father-in-law’s bake sheets from his bakery. The crust is about as thick as a dime and nothing sticks to it love these pans
Patina is what it's called. Pizza places leave it on for this very reason. It's the same thing as a seasoned cast iron skillet. It keeps flavors.
@@Jasonhoods you need to visit a kitchen sometime and learn a lesson or two.
@@chadd990 It's not filth. It's carbon - just like the grill marks on a good steak.
I love TH-cam! Everything you could ever want to know is on it. It's terrific!😃👍
Couldn't agree more! Thanks for the feedback, Mike 🧔
I did exactly what you said & it was awesome! I was ready to throw out 4 pans. Now they’re as shiny as the day I bought them! I’ll be hitting that subscribe button now!
Thank you so much for subscribing and having the courtesy to come back and leave feedback. I appreciate it, Mike 🙂
New subscriber. My mom used to clean any kind of enamel roaster or pot by putting them in a black garbage bag & putting a little container of ammonia in with them, la8de out flat so not laying on each other. Then tie the bag secure & leave them for a few days out in the sun if possible or down on the floor in the basement worked great
Welcome aboard Linda. Yes I myself have used ammonia in a plastic garbage bag to clean grill grates. It's a great tip thanks for sharing, Mike 🧔
Ok real review on this....I was desperate to clean this one stupid pan my husband had looking like that cookie sheet he cleaned. It really does work! I had to do it twice to get it looking decent because the pan was that caked with crud but it does work and I was able to get about 80% of the crud off of it the first go around where everything else i tried just wasn't doing it.
Thank you Kimberly for your review! I appreciate you taking the time to leave feedback, Mike 🧔
Learn something new today. I got some crappy looking pans I've been struggling with for years.
Thanks for taking the time to leave feedback, Mike 🙂
Love this video. Wish I found it a few hours earlier because I scrubbed with an ordinary degreaser till my fingers hurt. This is so helpful and awesome. Cheers!
Thanks for the kind words, I appreciate the feedback, Mike 🙂
done this for years works like a charm
Hi. Haven't watched you before but found your advice helpful for future events. Just as a further idea I spray my pots and pans, stainless steel, with vinegar after I wash them. Takes out residue left and makes them shiney. No scrubbing and don't add water.
Also I had a stain at the back of my stainless steel sink. Could not get it out with anything I tried. Then I used coconut oil. Ha! Came out first try. Pass it on it was sure a blessing to me. Thanks for what your doing.
Carol Switzer, coconut oil huh? I've used mineral oil myself. Thank you for your feedback and tip, Mike ☺
You can also clean your oven racks and exhaust fan screen with it. Does a fantastic job!
You are correct! Thank you for your feedback, Mike ☺
Nice.
This is amazing! I have a cookie sheet that looks awful and I have tried for years to get that sucker clean! I was so close to just buying a new one, but I’m going to try this method! Thanks!
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave feedback. Keep in mind that if it's extremely dirty, you will need extra elbow grease with the SOS or Brillo pad, Mike 🙂
Easy off I have to get me some!! I heard about it from my oven but now my baking pans can be saved!!! Thank you!!
You're welcome! 🧔
People complaining about dryer sheets not working are doing it wrong. You need to use 3 sheets and only put the pan in the dryer for exactly 11 minutes on the delicate setting. 👍🏼
I’ve been doing this method for 25 years. If your sheet pan doesn’t fit in the dryer, bend it in half over your knee and when it comes out of the dryer it will naturally take its original form.
@@Wakeywhodat I tried that, but it stayed bent, although the laundry room does smell like cookies now.
Too funny.
Yes, it works better when you throw your sneakers in, too
My dog barked when she heard the dog on the video. She jumped up and looked around. Lol
Haha, Toby was just trying to say hi, Mike 🙂
Mine did, too! A puppy that has taken me 2 hrs. to get settled down! Next time I use ear buds! ☺️
That's neat. I always wash my sheets Good right after but they still can get ugly. I think easy -off is the best method I've seen so far. My Mom used it in the oven for yrs when I was growing up. Thanks for the tip.
Thank you TH-cam for putting this in my recommendations, just recently my husband tried a pizza pan using a tip he read about, I think it was salt and vinegar, after that didn’t work I tried a tip I read of using ketchup, that did t work either. As soon as you started spraying the cleaner on I did the ole forehead smack 🤦🏼♀️ and said of course, easy off! It’s 3 am so I am going to wait til a more normal hour to dazzle my husband with my skill in cleaning that pan.
Thank you! I will definitely be checking out your other videos.
Lea, you are welcome. Thanks for the kind words and taking the time to leave feedback. I appreciate it, Mike 🧔
I've cleaned my shower with Easy Off Fume Free for years! Looks like new every time.
ED Brill, we've had so many folks mention this in the comment section that I am definitely going to try it when it's time to clean the shower. Thank you so much for your feedback, Mike ☺
Ed Brill does the Easy Off take of rust stains from hard water?
How long do you leave the easy off in the bath tub is there time limit to let it set?
Tip, wash sheet pans with SOS scrub pad after every use can also add a little bar keepers friend for axtra difficult spots. No harsh fumes... Will always look like new....
That's a good tip, but I don't know very many people who are that organized. Ha Ha ☺ The sheet pan that I cleaned for my neighbor had not been cleaned in years. Mike
Yeah I do that and still get gross stains. No matter how long I clean it. Or what I clean it with. Oil in a pan baked at a high temp creates deposits that really don't like to come off
Leslie, you hit the nail on the head. That's why I'm not inclined to scrub too much after every use. Mike ☺
a regular cleaning with Bar Keepers Friend and they'll look damn near new forever and it's less than 3 bucks a can
We have found bar keeper's friend works for a lot of tough cleaning. We cleaned ceramic tile that had literally 100 years of grime and the only thing that worked was bar keeper's.
Oven cleaner also works very quickly for shower and bathtub scum. When asked by my wife, the cleaning and renovation crew of an apartment complex we once lived in explained that this was how they were able to quickly and easily clean up after tenants within minutes!
James, thanks for the tip! Mike 🧔
I've watched this vid before and couldn't find it in my saves. Happily found you again! I have to say I have never let a pan get that far out of hand before taking the steps to just GET ON IT!
I agree with you Linda. The pan belongs to my neighbor. Personally, I switched to stainless steel pans and put them in the dishwasher. Something you would regret doing with aluminum pans. Mike
I use Easy Off all the time. Great product
David, I agree with you I use it all the time for lots of different things.
This is absolutely amazing. I’ve been trying to scrub mine like crazy. Definitely gonna try this. Thank you for showing us this trick.
You are so welcome! I appreciate the feedback, Mike 🧓
I thought about doing that for ages just keep forgetting to pick up some no smell oven cleaner. It's always made sense to me that it would work. Thanks!
My sister sets it out on the porch to spray it so we don’t have to inhale the fumes.
I clean my sheet pans with oven cleaner too (on newspaper outside--don't want the toxic fumes in my house), but I preheat my pans in the oven first. The heat and the oven cleaner really get the grime off without having to scrub too much, and I just use a regular scrub pad.
That's a great idea to preheat the pan. I think that would work real well. Thanks for the tip, Mike ☺
I have been using easy oven off for 20 years. I Also spray my oven racks with Easy Off and put them in trash bags and leave them for a few hours then I hide them down in the yard (no scrubbing). Then I wash them with soap and let them air dry. You are my kind of cleaning guy. Thanks so much for the confirmation!🎉💐🎉👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Welcome aboard PJ. Mike 🧔
Thanks for a great tip. You are a very likeable feel good presenter! Best wishes.
Thank you very much for the kind words and taking the time to leave feedback, Mike 🙂
I scrub everyone of my cookie sheets after each use. Yes, I wash surface on bottom and top and edges inside and out. I have pots and pans that are over 50 years old that look almost new.
Elaine, I wish I had your discipline. Thanks for the feedback, Mike 🧔
I used to do this, too, but I can't get the rest of my family to do it. I'll try the oven cleaner.
But if you didn’t do that and instead just did this a couple times a year (or a bit more of you use them quite frequently) you’d be saving a lot of time and effort, wouldn’t you?
Then the only question is what are the negative consequences of using that spray (on the pan, your health, or the environment). I assume it’s probably not great for the environment, but many of the most effective products are not.
Me too. Can’t stand to use grubby pans. I NEVER put them in the dishwasher....NEVER.
Omg I LOVE you!!! I purchased some used muffin pans from my local thrift. They are the mammoth pans Perkins restaurant uses... I look forward to bringing them back to life!
Ihold8stars, wow! You're too kind. Thanks for the feedback. I hope you subscribed so you can see more videos in the future ☺ Mike
Your kitchen is beautiful
Thanks 🧔
My husband used my good stainless steel pots on the greasy barbecue, I used Mother's aluminum wheel cleaner (for cars) on them and then gave them a good scrub afterward to make sure I got all the wheel cleaner off them.(use rubber gloves and kitchen fan). Easy Peasy brand new looking.
That's a great tip, thanks for sharing, Mike 🙂
Use OOOO steel wool. Brillo pads leave micro scratches.
@@stevechance150 Ace Hardware. Stay away from Amazon.
That's all I had works great. Harbor freight $2a pack
Wow! beautiful, I'll try this next Time for sure, alot easier, then Scribbling, for 45 Minutes Thanks 😉👍
