Greasy oven dishes

I'm sure that there's something on here about this but I can't find it so apologies if someone has already answered this.

Like many people we started off a year ago with nice new oven dishes which claimed they were non-stick.

However, having used them a few times they are now fairly sticky and have a film of grease over them no matter how hard we scrub when trying to wash them up.

The answer may involve vinegar or baking soda but I'd be grateful for some help :)

    There was a thread on this but I can't find it.

    Aunty Cathy said dissolve a couple of cups of washing powder in hot water, (enough to cover the dishes and oven shelves) then leave to soak overnight.

    It works great :) ;D

    i stick my grill pan in the dishwasher, comes up a treat. Otherwise put the offending tray in the garden and smother it with oven cleaner spray and leave for an hour.
    Clean tin ;D
