We've got a new gas cooker, and the burners are made of aluminium, with

What can you use to clean them? Bits of stuff inevitably get burnt onto
them, and I can't just bung it in some caustic soda, as it's aluminium...


KoH solution will clean the surface, be careful if left too long/used too
strong you wont have anything left.

I was hoping for some kind of household cleaner with strong degreasing
properties that doesn't eat aluminium. Anything that corrodes ally pretty
much instantly buggers up the finish.
