Right, it's not smart to mix other chemicals with ammonia... never
with bleach! For cleaning burnt on schmutz with ammonia place the
item in a heavy plastic bag and add a small quantity of household
ammonia, seal the bag and do this outdoors. It's the ammonia fumes
that do the cleaning. Do not use ammonia on aluminum.
