Hi-

A guest is requesting some PC old recipe for a cleaner possibly containing ammonia and dish soap. This is so she can clean the outside of her non-stick pans. I guess the old non-stick pans were not coated on the outside. She had gotten the recipe from a PC consultant many years ago.

Of course I tried to get her to buy the new executive cookware to no avail.

Thanks!
 
I've never heard of that. I always just used baking soda and vinegar on my old PC pans.
