Well, while I was newly post-op, Mom bought me a brand new toaster oven. It was on for a great price.

Now I know why - wrong box! While the outside of the box said "Continuous Clean", a read of the owner's manual showed it was anything BUT.

No metal scouring pads allowed, no oven cleaner - and a plastic scrubbie and soap don't do well. I believe oven cleaner is not recommended...

What can I use that will clean the brown grease 'stains' to prevent future buildup and grease fires?

Thanks!
