When I get residue on my enamel Dutch oven, I put baking soda and water in it and boil it for a while. It releases brown spots and keeps my favorite pan looking like new. I’ve not tried it for the exterior of pans, but I think the boiling water may be key to the release.

@@NgoziAtitiVlogs It works! so, I had put the whole soap, vinegar, baking soda etc and left it in the kitchen. I decided to check the internet while I was waiting. I saw your video that said it did not work and I felt disappointed, but was too tired to go and remove the pot from where I left it. by morning, I went back to just clear it, not expecting anything. I didnt even have an iron sponge, just the foam one and it came off! so, maybe leaving it over night makes the difference, and I also used cling film and not kitchen tissue to cover mine. but it definitely works. and my pot was definitely as blackened as yours.

I have done this and it worked on a old T-Fal chicken frying pan. the bottom was not as bad as yours but close. the sides were about the same. The difference in your method and the one i used was the pan was warm, the ingredients were all mixed together in bowl and then added to the bottom in a thick paste and then it was covered with plastic saran wrap. your way allows the active liquids to disapate where the saran wrap keeps it working longer. finished with very minor scrubbing with a green pad for the bottom but the sides were pretty much clean. it diid kill the enamel coating glossy look but the pan was old anyways

Sorry it didn't work for you. Best cleaner I've found for gas char on pans is normal hand cleaner. Something like GoJo. I like to use the orange one with pumus. Get the pan hot with hot water and then empty all the water you can. Put the hand cleaner on the pan with the Dawn and use green Scotch Brite scrubby pad to scrub the char away while the pan is still warm. If the char is fresh it melts away fast. If it is old it may take a second cleaning. This works on burnt oil in the pans too. About 20 years ago I got a whole set of stainless steel pans because my inlaws couldn't be bothered to clean them. I still have those pans to this day & they are still bright and shiny.

IT WORKS. BEEN USING FOR DECADES. -Used dish liquid/laundry detergent (the fat de-solver), salt (the abrasive/scrubber), baking soda (the alkaline agent), and vinegar (the acidic agent) on almost every burnt, scorched, caked-on pan and utensil I ever had. -If the items was burnt-on, you must heat the pot up to around the same degrees it was burnt at - while it sits in the solution. Burnt outsides of pots are harder. I place the burnt pot in a larger pot and let it cook in laundry detergent (less bubbles while cooking) and baking soda for an hour, add vinegar and cook pot another 15-30 minutes, then scrub it while hot using silicone oven gloves (they are heat safe and waterproof), using table salt. It works every time. -Each burnt item is different, some are easy to fix, some are not, some require high levels of baking soda, or detergent, or more time cooking, or overnight soaking. -I also use these same ingredients to unclog (slow draining) toilets and drains. Its awesome as it also cleans the bowls as it sits to unclog. -Hope that helps someone. :)

Like you, I had tried several things that I had found online and none of them had worked for me either. But I figured out something THAT ACTUALLY WORKED FOR ME!!!! My situation was that I had an expensive Calaphon stainless steel 3 quart pan that I really liked. I had accidentally left the empty pan on a hot burner and ruined its appearance. There was no burned on food or grease, the pan had been empty. I didn't need a pan that was that expensive, I had bought it because I like how it looked, and now I had ruined it, or so I thought. The outside of the pan had taken on a very even, dark, golden brown patina. Considering several of the online videos that hadn't worked for me, just like they hadn't worked for you, nonetheless it seemed that white vinegar might do something helpful. And white vinegar had been useful for me in other projects, so I tried something on my own. I took a plastic bowl big enough to immerse the entire ruined pan, and put in an entire gallon of pure white vinegar. I completely submerged my ruined pan, and let it soak for an entire evening. After three hours in pure white vinegar there was NOTICEABLE IMPROVEMENT! I continued to let it soak overnight AND THE DISCOLORATION WAS ENTIRELY GONE!!! I had my pretty pan back! So, this is what has worked for me. I don't know how this would do with burned on food and grease though.

What I would do is take boiling water and put it into the closed sink. Add baking soda and Dawn and some salt. Submerge the pan into that solution and leave overnight. Next morning scrub with more baking soda and that should help left off some of the brunt up stuff. But you are still going to have to scrub. Or just take the pot outside, spray with over cleaner and put in a plastic bag for a an hour or so and scrub.

Put water into your saucepan & add washing powder ( the same power you wash your clothes with) then bring the water up to boil, let the boiled water sit in the saucepan it’s clean, no fuss, let me know if it doesn’t work, I’ll be surprised

Take steel wool and rub with vim soap Tantanaaaa.....Magic comes true waaooo

[@bonitalopez5021]

Try using a scrubber sponge instead of a paper towel ... that might work

[@rebeccahynum2904]

I have never seen anyone try to clean up pots with their bare hand or even just a paper towel!

[@NgoziAtitiVlogs]

my dear the video that went viral insinuated that😄 hence i tried it myself, scrubbing is still d effective method. thanks for watching

[@anneduffield6966]

I have seen people wash pots with bare hands and ash. Anything us possible.

Africans do!!!

[@tom1959100]

Why did you add the salt and dish washing liquid?? I've tried the baking soda and vinegar(or was it hydrogen peroxide??) before and it worked for me. Let set for 20 or so minutes and use a scouring pad to help scrub some of the baked on gunk off. If it's built up over time, a 2nd or 3rd treatment might have to be done. But it did work for my. Just use baking soda and vinegar(or hrgn. peroxide...I can't remember)

[@NgoziAtitiVlogs]

Okay thanks 🙏🏾

Thanku so much for testing today Iam trying one more time before did two time fail suddenly I saw ur video and thank God and u not waist my time ❤

[@NgoziAtitiVlogs]

Most welcome 😊

[@alicegauteng2358]

I have never seen or heard of it not being scrubbed. What I know it's you put baking soda and vinegar and let it sit. After about 20 minutes you scrubbed it with steel wool.

[@NgoziAtitiVlogs]

Exactly what I know too , thanks for watching

[@auzzieartist]

I have used this combo of ingredients for about 25 years, and it does work but you do need to use a sponge not just paper towel to help lift as soaking alone won't work plus the amount of vinegar you put on there didn't activate the baking soda to do the work you need enough to make it fizz up.

[@ghisellado1008]

yes, true nothing changes. I tried too just like yours nothing changed.

[@charlottefioravanti9108]

I can see even without you rinsing the shine coming threw, when you have year's of build up you have to repeat the process. Also instead of a wet paper towel and your fingers,try using a scrubber sponge. FYI even the best products out there will say on the label.... repeat for heavy soil.😁

[@tionemalunga8198]

True this..pots will always need scrubbing with rough sponge..🙈🙈

After trying the method and waited 30 minutes with no results, I decided to log on to KZbin to see if I may have made a mistake and came upon your video. Wished I had seen this video before I wasted my time and products. Thanks for sharing.
