3M Scotch-Brite Griddle Cleaning Heavy Duty Scour Pad - Fast Griddle

In this review the 3M Scotch-Brite Griddle Cleaning pad is assessed for professional kitchens and busy cooks who need a fast, reliable way to remove baked-on food and cooking oils. The bottom line: this is a purpose-built, heat-resistant pad that cleans a flat top griddle in minutes when used with the recommended griddle cleaning liquid, making it ideal for foodservice teams who value speed and durability in routine griddle maintenance.

Key Features

• Tough cleaning power: The abrasive construction delivers heavy-duty scrubbing to remove baked-on food and stubborn oils without rusting.
• Long-lasting build: A bonded resin system resists degradation from hot water and detergents so pads last through multiple uses.
• Heat resistant: Designed to be used at operating griddle temperatures up to 350F so staff can clean during service to save time.
• Fast cleaning time: When paired with Scotch-Brite Quick Clean Griddle Liquid 700-40 or 701, a dirty flat top griddle can be cleaned in 3-5 minutes.
• Food safe: Certified by HACCP International as food safe and fit for purpose, leaving no residue behind after rinsing.
• Reusable pack: Thick, open construction rinses easily and the 15-count pack supports repeated professional use.

Who It's For

The pad is best for restaurant kitchens, catering operations, and serious home cooks who maintain a flat top griddle and need a tool that works quickly at high temperatures. It is especially useful where crews clean between service periods and want a combination of speed and durability.

Less suitable for someone who only occasionally cleans small household pans or who needs an ultra-soft pad for delicate, brand new nonstick surfaces, as some users report that the abrasive action can be aggressive on very fresh griddle finishes.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Very effective at removing baked-on food and grease when used with the recommended griddle liquid.
• Heat resistant up to 350F so cleaning can be done during regular use to save downtime.

• Certified food safe and rinses clean, leaving no residue.

Cons
