cleaning wire racks

chungne · July 30, 2005, 10:21:40 PM

along with my previous problem, my wire racks have allot of crusties on them....tried soaking in dish soap...cleaning with a wire brush and S.O.S pads....anyone have any better ideas...I thought maybe oven cleaner???

Yes, then next time, spray with Pam before using. It helps

I put mine in the dish washer and they come out spotless every time (mostly).

Someone told me on the forum here that pam was just canola oil. SO since then I just pull out my peanut oil on a paper towl and rub them down, works pretty good. Also don't let them sit aound before you clean them, I put mine in some hot soapy water right away. My only problem now is that they look like copper and chrome is coming off. HTH

I was wondering if anyone else stainless steel coating was coming off their racks. I have the same issue. The are beginning to look more like copper.

I thought the racks were solid stainless steel not just a coating.I have not had any peeling or chipping but I do wipe down with oil(canola,olive)and they clean up just great.The only time I had a sticky mess was with salmon jrky[:p] I made and forgot to oil one of the racks[:(!]
