Missing plastic spatula - George Foreman GR15 Indoor Grill

You could gently reheat it then immediately wipe off the plastic with a soft cloth. However I wouldn't know if i would be safe to use. The plastic wouldn't harm you but if the non stick part is comig ff that's up to your judgement. :-)

from the ceramic or glass cook top

hope its not tuppa ware
it will smoke
plastic scraper or solid plastic spatula
with hob off .. boiling water little at a time

No. There is no effective repair procedure for the pan once the teflon coating has become scratched down to the bare metal or begins peeling off.

You can continue to use the pan safely, but the non-stick surface will not be as effective as an undamaged coating would be.

Never use metal forks / spatulas / utensils on a teflon coated pan.

Instead try using thermal rated plastic, teflon, or wooden spatulas which will not scratch the pan coatings.

Good luck.

The two No. 5 Torx screws are under the label. Just peel both sides away a little and you can access these screws. Then pry open carefully with plastic spatula or something thin made from relatively soft plastic material. Good luck!

With a small amount of force those little seat belt clips will just pop in and out. I sometimes use a butter knife to pop them out. It is always quite stiff the first time.good luck p.s you made perfect sense.

youll have to run a whole cycle again and pay attention to when the heating element comes on again. Once its hot the plastic will be soft enough to remove it with a tight cotton rag. Use you oven mitts for protection. Hope this helps

Hi amsaunders5,

I'm Harvey the Master Plumber.

Your problem is: Children tried to surprise you by doing dishes. The plastic spatula melted and stuck on the heating coil on the bottom

This is a common problem. First, thank the children, it really wasn't their fault.
It's going to take some effort but you'll have to scrape/remove the plstic from the element. Replaceing the element is not a repair I recomend for the average homeowner.

Feel free contact me again!

Wet a hand towel or multiple layers of paper towel and lay it over the sticky residue and turn the unit on high for 20 to 30 seconds to heat it. Then use a plastic spatula to scrape it off. The heating should loosen it up and the plastic spatula should be safe to scrape without damaging it.

I bought one on ebay for 5.00. Type in george foreman replacement parts, I think; or, you can try drip pans.
