How to clean grates and burner caps on your Maytag gas cooktop
Allow the burners and cooktop to cool completely before you start cleaning. You can use gas grate cleaner to safely clean most grates and burner caps. You can order cleaner here.
Here's how it works. Fill your kitchen sink with about 2 gallons of water. It doesn't have to be hot water because you're going to soak the grates overnight.
Add 3 tablespoons of gas grate cleaner to the water. Stir the water until the granules completely dissolve. This stuff is strong, so wear gloves and avoid getting it on your skin. If you do, rinse it off.
Completely immerse the grates and burner caps in the cleaning solution and soak them overnight.
The next day, put on some rubber gloves and drain the sink. Using a scrub brush or abrasive pad, clean softened soil and residue from the grates and burner caps and rinse everything thoroughly. Wipe the grates clean with a towel.
