Hi TheMattSmith, you should be able to view the video now.
If you do use a scouring pad to clean it, I would recommend Only pads NOT impregnated with soap! I would never use any soap on a stone because most stones are very porous and will absorb soap.
As a side note everytime the stone is used it is being sterilized by reaching temps higher than bacteria can survive so soaping to clean is not really necessary.

I don’t know if this procedure long term consequences or not, however, I’ve had good success cleaning my stone by leaving it in the oven (done accidentally at first) while putting the oven on SELF-CLEAN mode. Everything on the stone came off and it looked brand new.
