Check brush condition

Damaged or shedding bristles are a reason to replace a brush.

Match the grate surface

Porcelain-coated, stainless and cast-iron components can have different care guidance.

Clean when equipment is safely cool

This site does not provide open-flame or hot-grill cleaning procedures.

Inspect before cooking

Loose debris or damaged cleaning tools should not remain on food-contact surfaces.

General consumer information only. Do not mix cleaning chemicals or improvise electrical, chimney, high-access, pressurized, drain or other safety-critical work. Follow Canadian product labels, recall notices and the exact manufacturer’s instructions.
