because i dont use it, they use it but wn confront them about it they say "**** off you should clean it your the oldest" so i refused. and they just cook off it they dont wash oven trays or plates or cutelry or anything they just keep eating of them, one said to me "why bother cleaning them when they get dirty again" or "F it were at uni" is another favorate thing to say to me. lol they get angry when i dont clean up there stuff but i told them the maid is on strike lol :P

You could try using a paint scraper, the type which has a sharp blade in it. Be careful not to damage the hob, so don't go mad with one. The other thing that shifts grease is steam. If you have a wallpaper steam stripping machine you could use that. Perhaps borrow one if not?

Just don't go mad with scourers as they can damage the hob surface. The key is to separate the crud from the surface...

ps: lining oven trays with foil helps make clean up a lot easier....
 
I haven't tried it myself yet, but my neighbour swears by ammonia. But only if it's the sort of hob that you can lift off, because you need to put it inside a bin liner, chuck ammonia in liberally over then tie the bag up. Leave overnight.
 
If its grease use soda crystals which cost about 60p a bag from the supermarket. They are the best kept secret for cleaning grease which I only recently discovered, use with some scrunched up aluminium foil for stubborn stains.

Don't do this if it's an aluminium hob. Soda crystals + hallyminimum = bad. (damages the surface)

Bicarb of soda plus a little white vinegar to make a paste will help any stains on there, and cut through any grease.
 
Elbow grease.
 
What type of hob is it? Gas-electric
 
melamine foam pad, they work a treat. And less sloppy ****ers using the hob, its supposed to stay IN the pans.

As Paul would say..Students?? Bag o'*****

Personally I'd just buy some new pans, cooking trays etc and wash them after each use them hide them for your own use. If they want to live like pigs then let em clean their own crap. Seems like theres a competition to see who is the mankiest, let them catch the old sam and ella of their dirty stuff.
 
I'm with Frank. Leave them to it. Why should you be the one cleaning up just because you're there? To be honest it sounds to me like you need some new house mates!
 
And failing ALL the above, there is always Mr Muscle products, or if you dont want the nasty smells, there is one I can't remember the name of but is environmentally friendly and does a wonderful job, it'll be in the supermarket, on the cleaning shelf, just along from the toilet rolls, which you will also need because your flat mates sound like the sort that wont have left enough of that either :lol:
