For storage, coat heavily with oil and keep the grates in a dry, covered space or wrapped to prevent condensation and rust formation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eScrape and brush grates after every use to remove food residue.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eApply a thin layer of cooking oil when cool to maintain the seasoned surface.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLeave grill dampers slightly open and cover the grill to reduce condensation.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFor long-term storage, heavily oil and wrap the grates in plastic inside a covered grill.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eAre these OEM parts or aftermarket replacements — and what materials are used?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese Uniflasy grates are aftermarket replacements engineered to match the form and function of OEM components.
