    I take mine out on the back porch and spray them both sides with oven cleaner, then the next day put them in the shower and let the water rinse them off and finish scrubbing them clean. It comes right off. Hope this helps. Use gloves

    I use the 5 minute oven cleaner on both racks and in oven. Works great.

    I read this tip on Hometalk awhile back. I decided to try it and it worked very well. I placed towels on the bottom of my bathtub (so racks won't scratch tub). You can use another container as long as you are able to submerge racks entirely. Place racks in tub. Cover with hottest water possible. I used hot water from tap and a couple of boiling tea kettles of water. Add about 5-7 clothes dryer sheets. Let this mix sit over night. The next day use the wet sheets to wipe racks...any grease or grim will peel right off the racks. It really works well.

    For standard cleaning, use a soapy sponge and hot water to wipe the racks. For stubborn messes, soak oven racks in hot water, dish soap, and a couple scoops of baking soda. Let the racks soak in this mixture for 15 to 30 minutes before scrubbing clean with a soft sponge.
