Oven cleaner.

dont get a "environmentally friendly" version of oven cleaner otherwise it wont work. The oven cleaner I got was Zep heavy duty it says specifically on the can that it will ruin chrome, aluminum etc. So this is the stuff you need to strip the coating, let it sit for 10-15 mins then with the product still on you will need to scuff it with sand paper or scotchbrite.
