Hey Mith don't laugh but I've heard of people spraying the underside of their deck with that aerosol, Pam cooking oil stuff. They say it makes deck clean-up much easier ... hit it with a hose, quick spray with Pam and you're ready to go again.

As to the original post, it looks like a pretty good idea but for $200, I think I'd make one if I needed it.

Why though, is it to replenish the fat as it leaks out of the burgers during cooking? I hate it when the burgers go dry as the fat leaks out.
Or is it to sray on the embers of a BBQ to make it flare up and look more exiting? /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

I tried the spraying Pam on the mower deck and it didn't work that great from what I could tell, but then again I never cleaned my deck for the winter, oops!!! No used to fool with it now, its ready to go mowing again!!!
One word of advice if using Pam on a gas grill, spray the rack either before you light the grill or after you take the rack off the grill. It will cause a great deal of flame up if those precautions are not taken. I found out the hard way.

I knew that . . . after I did it once! /forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif

And Mith, I think the primary purpose of Pam is just to prevent food from sticking to cooking utensils. My wife uses lots of it, except that she changed from Pam to the butter flavored generic brand from Wal-mart long ago. /forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif

OK, the deed is done, laugh at me all you want, but the deck is waxed! Ill let you know the results, 2 mowers, exactly the same, one waxed the other not. Well see how it goes next time i mow (may be a little while, it just rained a bit, bummer.
