Help, please!
I think I need a brain transplant. Here’s the problem: I inadvertently got a colored plastic bag too near the lid of our hot grill, and we cannot remove the imprint of the bag. Does anyone have a magic trick as a fix? If so, TIA.

Is it painted or stainless?
It will probably burn off eventually but if it's stainless try some goof-off with or without some 0000 extra fine steel wool |

Problem solved!
A combination of zep degreaser, Ajax and elbow grease….and voila! Good as new. I will avoid making that mistake again!

Get more bags and melt them on.
That way you can say it was intentional. |

For future reference, you'd be amazed at what WD-40 will help remove.

Not on the BBQ but

Jacking the car up on jackstands, and then running the engine until it was molten again, and then started scraping, pulling with pliers, and anything else we thought would work, we got most of it off. Took about 2-3 weeks for the residue to burn off. A stink worse than a skunk. Dave
