Keep Your Grill Looking Great... Inside and Out!
Courtesy Appliance Factory Parts
Grill interior:
- First cover the valve gas jet area and any ignitor wires with a protective cloth or plastic, or aluminum foil (Fig. 1)
- Scrape off heavy grease or cooking debris accumulation with a putty knife or scraper (Fig. 2)
- Next vacuum the dry debris with a vacuum or scrub the interior with a strong detergent solution (Fig. 2)
- Rinse, and let dry
- Remove protective covers installed earlier
* Do not paint the interior of your grill
Grill exterior:
- If the grill is not badly oxidized (whitened), a good warm water and detergent solution will brighten it's appearance
- A light coating of cooking oil evenly applied will actually restore the black color

Did this help? If not you may want to try:
- Paint the castings, which will restore them to near new condition
- To remove heavy oxidization on the grill's exterior, brush with steel wool or a wire brush
- Lightly sand the whole grill, then rinse
- Make sure no grease remains, as the paint will not adhere
- Using
a good
quality grill paint, lightly coat the
whole exterior (Fig. 3)
- Two or three light coats are better than one heavy coat - Let
air dry
- The paint will bake on during it's first use
