I have old pans that have rust and baked on grease that I want to keep. So how I clean them up?

Also have some antiques with rust. How do I clean those?

    Hello Tina,. I would Google this. "How to get rust off of pots" and "How to clean rust off of antiques". You don't want to ruin them. Aloha!

    Have you tried anything yet? I've used SOS pads for some pans but not all like the ones that are nonstick. Even Comet will work to get rust off by putting some in the pan, add a bit of water to make a paste then softly scrub. See if that will work.

    Baking soda and vinegar as a scrub and in water as a soak. Soak any glass or china. Soak any old pans with crud in the bottom. Scrub everything. Be patient with the soaking. More soaking= less scrubbing. Use a scrubber sponge for most things. Aluminum foil ball or steel wool pads for rust. Best wishes, Tina! ☺️
