There are a few ways. Easy Off oven cleaner, yellow can, bleach, ammonia, but not together :headslap: , I think brake fluid will.

Why does a scene from Full Metal Jacket pop into my head whenever someone asks this question? :giggles:

That's hilarious guys! LOL!

I've used Ammonia almost exclusively myself. Don't use brake fluid is my opinion; the last time I did the brake fluid melted the parts as well.

Brake fluid I don’t have. Easy off and bleach I have. :lashed:

Easy Off is very effective and quick.
