there are baked on black, dark brown, light brown difficult to remove
residues

How would that home cleaning remedies guy on public television, Graham
Haley, clean it with some compound of various proportions of vinegar,
baking soda, baking powder, cream of tartar or other substances?...
especially without need for any elbow grease!



Heat it up until it glows, and dump water into it?
Use this stuff?

Throw the crap away and buy decent cookware?




Automatic dishwasher detergent is a really strong cleaner.
Heat up enough water to fill a container large enough to hold the item you
want cleaned,then dissolve some automatic dishwasher(gel dissolves best)
detergent into it and pour into the container (or put hot water into the
container and mix in the detergent)then immerse the item.
Let it soak until the stuff is eaten away.It helps if the solution is kept
hot,and for really tough deposits,you may have to replace with a fresh
batch of solution.

The problem is then finding a sufficiently large container for your item.
