Dark Spots on Non-Stick Cookware: Normal or a Cause for Concern?

[DebinNC]

My 2 pieces have dark spots on the underside after being used a few times. It's like some sort of discoloration. Is it normal or is there a way to remove them? I've tried baking soda, but it didn't work.

Any suggestions? Thanks!

Mine have that as well. I would think it to be normal, but I am really not sure.

Mine has it too. I think it is where food got underneath while cooking.

Try a little BKF

It's a discoloration of the titanium alloy. It comes off with PC Stainless cleaner.

Thanks for all the replies. I'll head out for some SS cleaner and give it a go.

A little baking soda, water and elbow grease will do the trick as well. And it's cheaper.

I don't think you are supposed to use the SS Cleaner on the Executive non-stick cookware though. Unless I'm misunderstanding the problem....
