Carbon-Off Discovery Products Cleaner (19-Ounce Can)

This is a very good product that works well in removing impossible

Since the election vote count will be going on for another month, I decided to take a break and clean the baked on varnish from several stainless steel cooking pans. The results are amazing. See the accompanying pictures.I rarely get excited about a product but this product, “Carbon Off”, is one that got my attention. I have tried a number of products that claim to loosen the baked on Carbon (varnish). Almost all of these other products required a lot of elbow grease, and they required multiple applications. Because I was so disappointed with these other products, I had said to my wife, Jo, that we should do basic research and find a chemical that would loosen the bonds between the baked-on carbon and the metal of the frying pan.After some 'YouTube' and Internet research, I purchased a spray on version of “Carbon Off” from Amazon. It is a spray on gel that loosens the carbon that has been baked on the pan. I followed the directions, spraying the “Carbon Off” product onto a medium sized stainless steel fry pan. I tested it after it had set for 30 minutes by pushing the gel around with a stick. The carbon was loosened. I decided to let it stay on overnight, and I also sprayed the product on to two other larger cooking pans. The next morning I rinsed off the “Carbon Off” gel, and I cleaned the pans with a scotch bright pad. I used a toothpick to poke the gel and gunk out of the crevices. The carbon / varnish came off with very little elbow grease. The pans were very clean. I then used some metal polish to shine them up.I highly recommend using Carbon Off”

Worked!! I burnt my brand new cooker that my mom bought me pretty bad. Let it on the stove when making milk pudding on high for over 30 minutes :(. Was heartbroken to see the thick layer of burnt stuck very strong and thought will never be able to use this cooker again. Tried all scrubs, easy-off oven cleaner, but nothing can budge this burn even slightly.. (btw, easy-off works great for everyday use and I continue to use it for stove top lighter burns, etc). Then found this carbon-off. It was a but pricey, but I thought worth the try if it can save my cooker. And it did !!After 3 tries that included 2 overnight soak and a bit of scrubbing in between tries, got my cooker back as good as new !!! Pictures can speak for itself.The scent is pretty strong and I did have to do it outdoors. Since its a spray, I didnt wear gloves, but recommend wearing one atleast when rinsing off.

I sprayed a bunch of this on a pan that was caked with heavy hardened carbon deposits. After five hours, most of the carbon came off but there were still some stubborn deposits left that would not come off with any kind of scrubbing. When I attempted to apply more of this product, I discovered that the spray-cap was now leaking all over the place and was no longer working as a sprayer. I think the carbon-off must have dissolved part of the spray cap!

Stop using other products immediately if you’re trying to clean the carbon from your exhaust and use this. This works fast and easy to remove carbon build up from my car’s exhaust. I just spray it on wait about a minute and wipe off easily.After researching online and watching several YT videos every product I used I would still end up using a scotch pad or wire brush which would just scratch my exhaust. No longer with this.NOTE: make sure to avoid getting any of the product on you. Wear PPE (gloves, eye pro) and even a mask because this stuff is strong.Also, I had a harder time removing the carbon in sections I already tried cleaning with other products. My guess is I compacted the carbon so it became more difficult to remove and I still had to use a pad. But in places I didn’t touch the carbon wiped off easily with a shop towel.

Expensive and does not work as shown. My stainless pots had some normal deposits on bottoms .Some carbon came off needed a second application and steel wool to get final amount off ,Better off with steel woll and elbo grease .

I purchased this to clean years of carbon build-up on my iron skillet. I followed all the directions carefully, using extra precaution with goggles, gloves and a large bucket of fresh water near by. All work was done outdoors, where fumes could easily dissipate.This will definitely work, but it takes considerable time. Plan on spraying it on thick and letting it sit someplace safe overnight (I locked the skillet in my shed overnight to prevent any critters from being injured). While a significant amount of carbon did come off there's still about 40% left after two treatments. Possibly the gel-based formula would penetrate better.For reference, the MSDS sheet for Carbon-Off lists the following components, all of which are toxic and dangerous to various degrees.

This stuff is the bomb. I thought that my pot was no good. It was so black and the grease was cooked on so bad. I bought 3 cans and it was well worth it. My pot looks brand new. It's worth it's weight in gold. You won't be disappointed.
