SS Grill Pan clean up?

[Jim McKelvey]

hello -
Just started using a stainless steel grill pan for veggies and more delicate cooks. Anyone have a secret clean up method? So far I hv just soaked in vinegar / water solution and scrubbed with modest success. I'm hoping there is a secret method!!!

Thanks - Jim

When I have to clean my gas range grates, I use straight ammonia last time I put them in a trash bag and put them out in the Sun. The ammonia ate trough the plastic, next time I'm going to use a disposable aluminum pan with ammonia and then bag it. The ammonia did they job and was effortless. I curse the years I slaved over them with Bartender's Friend. Now I foil the gas range grates I don't use so I have less to clean, yes I'm that lazy.
