@ktdoggett Well played! :D
For those so inclined, there is a magical substance called "kettle cleaner" used for stripping lacquered-on oil stains from commercial popcorn makers. If it's good enough for carnies... https://www.popcornsupply.com/heat-n-kleen-popcorn-kettle-cleaner
Seriously, the stuff is magical. Of course now I have the urge to run a heavily rigged ring toss game and operate a poorly maintained Tilt-A-Whirl ride so beware of side effects. #AlwaysWearPPE
