Dang, that's a bummer, Mark.

I have a similar TEC grill (G Sport) and love it. Certainly not cheap, but one of the finer things in life to appreciate and enjoy.

Please post many details and pics on your deep cleaning process. I.e. what scrubber you use, what cleaners, etc...

I keep mine pretty nice, but it is hard to keep up with consistently. I will be curious to see exactly what your process is since I have the same grill.

Thanks,

JA
