Stainless steel liquid cleaner or Barkeeper Friend
Mr Clean magic eraser.
Baking soda is my go to kitchen appliance scrub.
Spray with oven cleaner, place pan in plastic bag per instructions to allow cleaner to work without drying out. Rinse and scrub with non-scratching scrubber. For stubborn remains I would feel comfortable using a very fine (#0000) steel wool, not kitchen steel wool products, to polish away stains.
Brillo pads. I keep a used one in the freezer so it won't rust. Btw, I have a pan just like yours. The pad won't scratch it.
Use a microfiber cloth and barkeepers friend
Bar Keeper's Friend, either the powder or the liquid, and a gentle scrubby should help get a bunch of gunk off.
Make a paste with baking soda and water and spread it onto the pan, best done in the sink. Let this set overnight and then in the morning scrub with the coarser side of a scrubbie sponge from the dollar store. Repeat as needed.
