Can you recommend the best way to clean the grates on a Whirlpool gas range, model #SF377PEGQ5? I have soaked in dishwasher soap, denture cleaner as well as typical non-abrasive cleaners.

Put your grates into a trash bag, then add a cup of clear parson's ammonia to the bag.. sit it outside in the sun for day... when you're done.. gunk will all but fall off. Be sure to do this outside..

Hello;Yes Dentures can break very easy,be careful not to hold on one side while cleaning them.Lay them flat in the palm of your hand and brush gently then turn over and repeat step one.Also use A soft type Magic Eraser the type for kitchen and bathroom and make sure to clean them very well after with warm soapy water and rinse clean.You should soak them in A Denture cleaner over night so you don,t need to use so much pressure or just use the Magic eraser but be gentle.
Don't use oven cleaner! It isn't recommended by GE. Their book explicitly says to put the grates in a plastic garbage bag and pour a some ammonia into the bag. Tie the bag tightly so all the gas stays inside. Put in a garage in case it leaks because it can smell bad. Wait 24 hours and the stains will come off with a hose and some light rubbing. I didn't believe it at first but it works great! My wife loves our 'like new' oven.
I'm assuming it's for a gas stove... and we're talking about the grates on top. If so, check to see the texture of the part that touches the stove. If it's rough, like cast iron, Use a product like Gas Grate Cleaner. (sells at most stores. Grey, white, black and red container, looks like Comet.) If it's smooth underneath, put it in the dishwasher! Or soak it in the sink. Or, you can use the gas grate cleaner as well.
Inside racks? That Cleaner works awesome on them too.
glass cleaner WITH ammonia, and a small toothbrush works well. mop up with an old washcloth, rinsing often. for pieces which have gummy residue, and which can be removed to the sink for soap and water finsing afterwards, try GooGone.
Sounds crazy, but this works. Soak the grates in warm to hot water with 2 dryer sheets (Bounce), let them soak for an hour or two. Unbeliveable how they came clean. I did have to use a Scotch Brite pad on the two that I use most, but it sure beats replacing them.
Try This.... Place the grates in a sink of hot, soapy water and let soak for 15-20
minutes. For tougher stains, add a cup of sudsy ammonia to the water.
Make sure grates are thoroughly dried after each cleaning. After the
cleaning process, Lightly coat the bottom of the
grates with a cooking spray and then blotting them dry. Or If you self clean the oven on occasion, put them in the oven when running the self clean cycle.
