Descaling Gel Cleaner for Ovens and Barbecues – PULIFORNO®
Burnt grease, black crusts and carbon residue can build up fast on ovens, oven glass, barbecues, trays, pots and baking dishes—especially after high-heat cooking. In these cases, a standard kitchen degreaser may not work well. That’s why you need a strong alkaline descaling gel that targets tough, heat-bonded dirt. PULIFORNO® is a powerful gel cleaner for intensive cleaning on heavily soiled surfaces. Thanks to its thick texture, it sticks to vertical areas too. As a result, it stays in contact longer and helps you remove burnt grease and black deposits more easily.
When to use it
Use PULIFORNO® whenever you need a deep and decisive clean on hard-to-remove buildup, especially when dealing with:
- ovens with cooked-on and burnt grease
- persistent black crusts and carbon deposits
- stubborn soot-like residue
- oven racks and inner walls with layered dirt
- heavily used barbecue grills and accessories
- trays, roasting pans, pots and baking dishes with stuck-on residue
It is ideal for anyone looking for a high-performance oven and grill cleaner that can still be used in domestic environments, thanks to its solvent-free and odourless formula.
What it does
PULIFORNO® works as a strong degreasing and descaling gel, delivering a complete action against the most difficult residues:
- deep-cleans surfaces
- breaks down greasy deposits
- helps remove black baked-on crusts and carbon build-up
- lifts soot and heat-bonded grime
- stays in place on vertical surfaces thanks to the gel consistency
After cleaning, it rinses off easily and does not leave unpleasant smells. In addition, it helps restore surfaces effectively and in a controlled way.
How it works
PULIFORNO® is a strong alkaline gel solution engineered to act directly on burnt grease and carbonised residue. Because the gel adheres to the surface, it provides extended contact time. This is essential to soften and detach stubborn deposits. Then, complete the cleaning with controlled scrubbing using an abrasive sponge or a dedicated oven scrubbing pad, depending on the level of buildup. The formula contains no solvents, is odourless, and is generally more comfortable to use indoors than many traditional aggressive cleaners.
Cost-saving benefit
Using PULIFORNO® helps save time and effort during intensive cleaning tasks, reducing the number of attempts needed to remove stubborn residue.
Its economic advantage comes from practical benefits such as:
- long-lasting degreasing action on layered buildup
- the ability to repeat applications without damaging the surface until fully clean
- higher effectiveness than common cleaners, which often require multiple passes with uncertain results
As a result, you get faster, deeper cleaning with less product waste and fewer unnecessary steps.
Recommended uses
PULIFORNO® is designed for intensive cleaning of:
- kitchen ovens
- oven glass doors
- barbecues
- heavily soiled pots and baking dishes
It is particularly effective against greasy residue, black crusts, carbon deposits and soot-like dirt—typical of surfaces exposed to high temperatures. If small white marks remain after treatment, you can finish by rinsing with white vinegar or citric acid to complete the cleaning and even out the surface.
Contact time
The performance of PULIFORNO® depends on the level of buildup and the required contact time:
- on moderately soiled surfaces: effective after 30–60 minutes
- on very resistant black crusts: leave on for 6–12 hours
This flexibility allows you to adjust the treatment to the type of residue and achieve progressive results. If needed, repeat the application to remove the remaining buildup.
Technical limitations
For correct use, always follow the compatibility guidelines.
Do not use PULIFORNO® on:
- microwave ovens
- uncoated (unpainted) aluminium mini ovens
- aluminium pans
It is also recommended to wear gloves and avoid contact with skin and eyes during application, as this is a strong alkaline cleaner.
