Why do you remove the paint from the oil pan? (grounding or better adhesion) Thanks !

Sorry I can't help. We put ours on the back of our dish to keep it from freezing in the ice and snow.

I didn't remove any paint, just cleaned the surface and also sealed the edges of the pad with permatex.I have had no issues.

better adhesion , there is no electrical grounding of it to pan. clean surface really good , wipe with solvent and stick it on, you shouldnt have a problem. sealing the edges with permatex silicone gasket maker seems like a good idea too in wet nasty climates.

I've installed several. Never knew the oil pan was painted. I use gasket maker for seal.

The idea is for better adhesion. Probably sticks better to bare metal than it does to a painted surface.

I repositioned my bumptek strip when first applying it and there was no damage to the paint. I haven't tried removing it, though. Good luck -CR

I always cook with oil to minimize sticking. I soak it overnight in water so it's really easy to clean the next day. Best of luck

If the product you are painting is already magnetized, painting over it will not take that property away. Hope this helps!

Spray oil has additives that can gum up the pan. I don't recommend it. The best technique is to heat up the pan until a drop of water skitters across the surface. Then add oil and swirl it around. The oil will seal the pores of the metal and nothing will stick, provided you keep the heat consistent.

Thanks. I ended up using the little green scrubby pads and that did the trick. I was just worried it would hurt the pan, but it looks as good as new.

We had to use near boiling water and steel wool to scrape it all off. It took a long time and was kind of a pain, to be honest, but is totally worth it. We then seasoned the pan with organic coconut oil and then a second time with bacon fat, and it is now my new favorite cooking surface.

Yes, you can remove the film without hurting the paint. I just did that recently. The film peeled off more easily than I expected, but I also used liquid paint remover on a cloth to remove sticky residue. Worked out fine.

It also helps with cleanup. Stuff is less likely to stick to the pan. Unless you want to make gravy with any drippings.

It appears to be non-stick; Once you follow the instructions and use a coating of oil..........I have been wondering since it arrived, after washing it several times, removal of some grit is not difficult......so...............it appears to be non stick.............with experience, after a while, sometimes the "so called" non stick coating is removed......don't know the name of the non stick coating. removed.....The name of the non stick material I don't known.

I am not sure how to take it off the tank. Is that what you mean? Mine is woking good still. But I have a little tip that you might try. Let pure some oil (cooking oil, any kind) around the subject that you want to remove it. Make sure the oil insinuate between your tank and the light handle then take a thin knife , using a top point cleave them little by little from the outside in add more oil as need. The oil help to remove the glue. Remember the tank is glass so you have to be calm and patient when doing this job. Hope this help and hope my English is well enough.

It sits in the oil. If you're concerned about cleaning it, I don't consider it a big deal. The heating element is a decent size.

Oil stains should not cause any problems with the pan. I use a paper towel folded into the size of small pad and dip it in a little melted butter to wipe down the hot pan prior to pouring batter in it. That will prevent any sticking. Good luck.

Its perfect for oil pans but be sure to clean thoroughly and then degrease a couple of times with a solvent. Just like any other RTV, it can't stick in the first place if its still oily.

Mine came off easily and the residue came off with warm soapy water. If its that sticky on yours you can always try a drop of goo gone that you can pick up from home depot or Lowe's. I only had an issue with one pan but after a few scrubs with dish soap it came off completely.

I don't understand the question "to be clean?" You don't need to remove the oil container in order to clean it. I use a sink spray hose and drain through the drain valve.

get some barkeepers friend. It will remove it right away. I use it on my all clad pans, and it doesn't disappoint
