Our Enamel Scraper is a versatile little tool, excellent for removing baked on grease and reaching into tricky spots around the hot spots and hinges.

Here is how to fit the blade, and remove it. Please take care, we don't need to tell you that razor blades are sharp! 

Safety First! - Wear eye protection! If you are undertaking one of our Heavy Duty clean ups, wear gloves too.

The blade is held flat and low against the enamel, as it pushes against the residue it lifts shavings of cooked on grease. The shiny surface below is a joy to see! The corner of the blade is deployed around the hinges and tricky corners.

If the blade sticks, it has more than likely gone in at a slight angle or has gotten caught on the rear of the gold blade holder. With caution and your gloves, gently tease the blade through this part. Or pull it back and try to insert it 'level'. The blade will click into place. Draw back your gold button to the 'scraping' position, just before the 'stop' divots. If you are not ready to use it now, depress the gold button to conceal the blade (the 'safe' position).
