I used bio washing powder and then a re-shapen toothbrush and carb cleaner. Did a pretty good job. Lee.

Burn it off with a small blow torch?

I used a dishwasher tablet on the gauze filters ; worked very well

Be a bit careful if you try a blowtorch ; the gauze is very thin and can melt !
How do I know this...……...

The ceramic backplate disc is more than likely shot

The very best thing for its age, is replace the ceramic backing pad, and the sintered 310s Stainless burner mesh. requires a cutter and a mig welder
