Melted plastic on both the lift out pan and the roaster.

I loaned my big electric roaster to a friend. It came home with melted plastic on the pan and on the roaster. I have tried soaking, using a scratcher, and peeling with no luck. I am thinking I am out of luck.

Give a hair dryer a try. Get it hot enough and scrape. Also, acetone will soften plastics...might want to try that. It’s flammable and has a lot of fumes. Best to use it outside. Buy at hardware store...higher strength than nail polish remover.Gotta love folks who borrow your stuff! -

Yes, hair dryer. Heat up the plastic and scrape. -

Use the hair dryer on high heat and use a scraper to get it off when it warms up enough and you should be able to get it off. The metal does need to be pretty warm to loosen it the best. -
