Soaking in hot water and baking soda may help,but I do not know about restoring the shine.

Do you know there are crock pot liners? I use them every time and they are great. Usually forund near plastic wrap and things like that.

I love those liners too and would not cook anything in the crock pot again without them!

She is talking about the outside of the crockpot, not the inside.

Elbow grease and 409 spray is what I have always used to get stains and such off.

Yes. Any kind of dish soap and a good sponge has worked for me.

I'd use a kitchen magic eraser like you use for a glass stop range.

I'm another who uses a microfiber cloth and water. If there's anything on there that won't get off, I use the same kitchen counter cleaner I use on my stove top and counters with the same microfiber cloth.
