Rust forming inside the cook chamber, on grates, or on exterior panels.

Safety first: Ensure the grill is cool before cleaning or applying protective coatings.

• Remove surface rust: Use a non-metallic scrub pad or fine steel wool (on non-food-contact surfaces) to remove light rust. For grates, use a grill brush and then re-season with cooking oil.
• Protect surfaces: Apply a light coat of high-temperature cooking oil to cast iron or steel grates after each use.
• Use a cover: Protect your Gourmet Grillson pellet grill with a fitted cover when not in use, especially outdoors.
• Replace severely corroded parts: If structural components or grates are heavily rusted or flaking, replace them with OEM Gourmet Grillson parts.
