Abstract
A method for removing non-stick coatings from cookware or bakeware products is disclosed. The method includes the step of determining the angles of the primary surfaces of a pan having a coating to be removed. The method further includes the step of configuring a high-speed, multiport, rotating cleaning head to provide at least one water jet associated with each primary surface. The method further includes the step of employing the cleaning head to deliver an ultra-high pressure water jet directed at the pan while tracking the cleaning head along a plane substantially parallel to the upper surface of the pan. Using the method of the present invention, a coating may be removed from a pan in a single pass.
