I let mine cool down and wash it with a solution of iron out. Rinse and wipe it with very little oil of any kind as long as it is not flamable.

There is a cleaner found where you buy cast iron wood stoves. I think I have also seen it at places like Home Depot and Lowes.
You could try using steel wool to clean it. After cleaning use a high temperature paint to restore the color of the stove.

Use heavy duty cleanser. Then get "stove black" from the hardware store and treat it according to directions.
