brewers wash to clean pans?

Does anyone use Five Star PBW brewers wash to clean pans, tanks, etc... It does wonders cleaning stainless but I don't know about using it to clean the pans.

I have and it is very effective. Just rinse with the same temp water it was mixed with - or give it an extra rinse to be safe. The only downside to using it is it is pretty expensive, especially for that much volume of the pans. This year I'm trying a permeate soak to see how that goes. That method has a significantly better price. So far after about 5 days the results are metza-metz though.
