Hello,

I have a new KitchenAid gas cooktop with an integral griddle. According
to the appliance repair man (an older appliance needed work), this is a
Viking unit. The manual doesn't have much information on cleaning, so
I'm looking for some advice.

It's starting to season and get darker, but I need to clean the surface.
The instructions say to use a "non-metalic" griddle scraper. But I
haven't been able to find one. I don't know if a "ScotchBrite" pad
would be too rough on the surface. My lovely wife managed to get some
bacon particles stuck pretty good.

1) What tool can I use to lightly clean the surface?

2) What is a griddle scraper? A Google search turns up things that look
like putty knives.
