With the older models of self-cleaning ovens one could put aluminum foil on the bottom tray of the oven, but with the newer models there is a warning (hidden in the last line) of your booklet for models of stoves where aluminum foil should 'not' be used! Even though print in small and many consumers are complaining regarding their stoves and melted aluminum stuck to the bottom tray of their oven (nothing will get it off) all manufacturer do 'not' cover this problem under warranty and thus, it will cost you $44 to buy a new tray. You unscrew the two screws to the bottom of the damaged tray of your oven and then install the new one and put back the screws. Letters of complaint should be written to the manufacturers to have them put this warning in clear bold print right on the front cover of the instruction brochure.
We have a new GE Monogram dual fuel self cleaning range. A guest cook placed a thin sheet of aluminum foil on the bottom of the oven without our knowledge. It fused to the oven after baking...and could not be removed by normal hand cleaning methods. I went to the web and tried a $7 Home Depot bottle of naval jelly as suggested. We let it stand overnight and experienced very, very poor results. We then tried a $1.28 bottle of "The Works" from Walmart. This product contains 20% Hydrogen Chloride. As I write this, my third application brushed in with an old toothbrush, has almost all of the fused on aluminum foil dissolved. I let it stand only a half hour between applications and rinsed thoroughly with water in between. Don't know if any damage is being done to the ceramic oven coating; but I do know that EVERYONE says NOT to use self cleaning oven with foil melted on. BE CAREFUL...ventilate fumes from the oven and use rubber gloves. You will see "The Works" bubble away at the foil thus creating fumes. By the way, the GE answer man told me to use a razor blade when I asked for advice. That didn't sound like a smart idea to me and it didn't work!

Depending on how severe the bond of the melted aluminum is to the oven bottom, there are two ways to resolve this problem. If very severe, the option is to replace the bottom plate which would probably cost only $30. If the bond melted material is only minimal, caustic soda can be used to clean it out. Use rubber gloves and the area must be properly ventilated?æbefore starting as the chemical reaction of caustic soda releases fumes that are harmful if inhaled.
To remove a melted plastic bag from the bottom of a car, let the car cool down a bit, but not completely. Take a metal knife and chip the plastic gobs off.
your hand
Use a magnet to remove the iron filings. The add water to dissolve the salt, and the aluminum filings will settle to the bottom of the container. Pour that salt water into a pan, heat it and evaporate the water, leaving the salt in the pan.
you change it and replace it.......

Wet cloth.
