Jam it completely full of ice cubes while it's running with a wooden spoon not your fingers. Add a quart of water and more ice until you completely plug the drain pipe and it backs up with a clear slushy. It will turn black while it scrapes the inside of your disposal clean but won't eat the seals and cause more corrosion. Ice actually cleans better than any other product for disposals.
Draino also eats the pop up arm surprisingly well in bathroom sinks
A larger portion of my living is made from fishing stuff out of the drain.
