Potato Cleaning Mix You will need:

Washing powder
Potato
1 tablespoon salt
1 tablespoon baking soda
1 sachet baking powder
240 grit sandpaper
Process:

First, remove the handle from the pan.
Then, fill it with water.
Place the pan with water on the stove and wait for it to heat up a bit.
Sprinkle it with washing powder to soften the grease a bit.
Grate the potato with the peel on and add a tablespoon of salt.
Then, add baking soda and baking powder.
Remove the pan from the heat – you should see that the fat has been released and the water is dirty.
Pour out the dirty water and rinse with cold water to cool it down.
Place the pan on a cloth and rub it well with the mixture you prepared.
Sprinkle some salt on top and clean it with sandpaper.
You can add some water to the pan and continue cleaning until all the burnt residue is gone.
You will see that the pan shines beautifully and is not scratched.
This is how you clean the pan on the outside as well, then rinse it.

That’s it, it shines almost like new!

You can see the whole process in the video attached at the end of the article.

Vinegar and Toothpaste Cleaning Mix You will need:

Baking soda
Paper towels
Vinegar
Boiling water
Liquid soap
Toothpaste
Protective glovesPut on the protective gloves.
You can begin.
Turn the pan upside down to remove the burnt-on dirt from the outside.
Cover the entire pan with paper towels.
Spray liberally with vinegar using a spray bottle.
Then, turn the pan upside down and sprinkle liberally with baking soda.
Cover the inside with paper towels as well.
Repeat the process with vinegar, thoroughly wetting the paper towels with it.
Disassemble all the removable parts of the pan and cover them with baking soda as well. Wrap them in paper towels.


Again, don’t forget to spray with vinegar.
Now place the wrapped pan along with the other pieces in a large pot.
Pour boiling water over everything.
Let everything react and do its work.
The burnt grease will separate itself from the pan, so now you can remove the coarse residue with tongs.
When the coarse dirt is gone, sprinkle baking soda back into the pan.
Add some liquid soap, some toothpaste and some vinegar.
Now mix everything together using the rough side of a sponge.
And scrub both sides of the pan.
Finally, you just need to rinse the pan and all its parts with clean water and wipe with the sponge.
All that’s left is to put the handle back on the pan.


Done!
You won’t believe it’s the same pan, the result is fantastic!
