Cleaning Grills - Ovens - BBQ & Kitchens
 
Interior Grates | Spray a liberal amount of Heavy-Duty Solution or Industrial Strength Cleaner, on grates and allow to sit for a few minutes. Then do a light spray over the top and scrub using either an industrial scouring pad, grill brush, or other similar item. This can be done with the grill is cold or warm. Rinse the grate with warm water when finished. Note that the amount of scrubbing will depend upon the amount of grease buildup and length it’s been present. 
 
Interior & Exterior Grill Bowl | Spray Heavy Duty Solution or Industrial Strength Cleaner over the interior or exterior of the grill. Scrub and wipe down with a clean cloth. For areas with grease buildup we recommend using a nylon brush or other similar “light” abrasive products.

Ovens - Ranges - Hoods | Oven and range surfaces may be cleaned warm, using SunBrite Heavy Duty Mix and 3M Scotch rite pad. Deposit of Carbon on racks, doors, and bottoms of ovens may be cleaned with solid SunBrite and stainless scouring pad if needed. Glass on convection ovens will normally come clean with diluted mix and green pad. Use stainless scouring pad if carbon spots remain. When cleaning either cast iron or enamel cook tops always use stainless steel scouring pads to maximize results with less effort. Backs of ranges and hoods may be cleaned with diluted product and 3M scratchpads, provided build up is not too thick. 

Carbon Removal | If cleaning heavy carbon buildup from pots and pans, or the sides and backs of grills and broilers, use solid Concentrated SunBrite with a stainless-steel scouring pad while the surface is warm. Scrub areas well, using more solid product if needed. Deposits should liquefy, making clean up easier. Repeat applications may be necessary if build up is severe. 

Convare - Rotisserie Frying Equipment | Take appliance apart and spray with heavy solution of SunBrite. Remove any black debris with stainless steel scouring pad. For best results spray on warm surface if grim is thicker than 1/2 inch. 

Floors - Baseboards | Use industrial Strength Cleaner or Add 4 - 5 cups diluted SunBrite Concentrate to standard mop pail with Hot water. May be mixed with bleach with no reaction. Apply to floors in normal manner, using mop or deck brush. Rinse with water and allow to air dry. When cleaning baseboards, use Industrial Strength Cleaner or spray diluted SunBrite and use towel or non-abrasive sponge to remove black marks, wax, or other buildup. Rinse if desired and wipe down with a clean cloth. 

Fryer Boil Out | Take 4 - 5 cups diluted SunBrite or 1/2 cup solid product and add to average 5-gallon fryer filled to normal oil level line with water. Turn on fryer between 210-215 degrees and let simmer for 20-30 minutes. Drain as usual. If carbon is not completely removed from heating elements and tray area, use Scotchbrite pad to help eliminate burnt on deposits. Rinse well 2-3 times with clean water and fill back to normal level with oil. If removing thick, gummy build up from the sides, top and back of fryers, use solid SunBrite and stainless-steel scouring pad when warm to liquefy deposits.
