How do you remove melted plastic from a dishwasher's heating element?
You can remove melted plastic from a dishwasher's heating element by first unplugging it from the power outlet and removing all of the dishes and racks. Leave the dishwasher door open to allow the coils to cool down. Place some ice in a plastic zipper bag and put it on top of the cooled plastic and leave for about 30 minutes. Remove the ice and using a plastic scraper, scrape the hardened plastic off the coils. Soak a cloth in an acetone-based nail polish remover and leave it on the element for 5 minutes. Use this cloth to scrub the remaining plastic off of the element then wipe the coils with a clean, damp cloth. Remove any remaining nail polish remover residue with a cloth that has been dipped in a solution of warm water and dish soap, then rinse the coils with water.

How do you remove melted plastic from a wood stove?
If plastic is melted I guess it would be useless and the ways u can get rid of it is by either scratching it off or use solvents such as Hexane's ( to buy this solvent I think you need a licence and it is extremely flammable).Plastic dissolves in this type of solvents and then you can just rinse it off. The safest and most effective way is to heat up your wood stove (as I assume the melted plastic is on the outside) and use a putty knife to scrape it off when it's hot.
