I had a skillet that looked that bad once. There's an easier solution.

I bought Barkeeper's Friend. It comes in a can like Ajax or Comet. It can be purchased at grocery stores.

Just wet the pan, sprinkle on Barkeeper's Friend and wash with a brush, rinse well. It comes out sparkling.

Just soak in hot water and bleach will clean anything without a mess and scrubbing!

I couldn't care less what the outside of a cooking pan looks like. If the inside cooking area is clean that suits me.

I do find the joke funny, because half way through reading it I was thinking, nope to much work and it doesn't bother me at all.

Have used Earth Brite product that is natural clay. It remains me of that old borasso pwder that my GrandMother used to use. I think I bought it from HSN.

Trick is not to let the bottom of the pans get so grimmy

They also sell more intense green/gray pads in the paint section. Wouldn't be without them. They can be cut down to size.

A can of Comet along with one is a force of nature.

@lolakimono "I threw it away and bought a new one " -- I have used that handy hint before.

I would be careful with Barkeepers Friend. I used it and rinsed off the item in my kitchen sink and it took off all of the chrome around the drain. Now I have an ugly brass drain instead of a nice shiney one.

@Melzie

Are you sure upon didn't mix anything else with the Barkeeper's Friend? I use it all of the time with no ill effects on my chrome. I did, however, have the same thing happen in a bathtub drain once. I can't remember what I poured down that drain - but it took off the chrome finish around the drain hole.

So funny @lolakimono ! But I get the impression that a few posters didn't read through to the end, ha ha.

To Shoesnbags:

Nope! I didn't use anything else. Used it the same way I would use Comet, Alax, or any similar product. Just mentioned it so someone using it might want to try a test spot first and avoid kicking themselves like I did, and still do, every time I look at it. Grrrr!
