Instructions
1. Prepare the Area
Make sure your oven or stovetop is completely cool before you begin. Remove any racks if needed and clear away loose crumbs or debris using a dry cloth or brush.
2. Make the Cleaning Solution
In a large bowl, combine the baking soda, white vinegar, dish soap, lemon juice, and hot water. Stir well until the mixture is fully blended. The baking soda will act as a gentle scrub, while vinegar and lemon help dissolve grease and eliminate odors.
3. Apply the Cleaner
Dip a sponge or microfiber cloth into the solution and squeeze out the excess liquid. Apply the mixture generously to greasy or stained areas inside the oven or on the stovetop.
For tougher stains, add a bit more baking soda to create a thicker paste and apply it directly to problem spots.
4. Let It Sit
Allow the cleaner to sit for 15 to 20 minutes. This step helps loosen dirt, grease, and burnt-on residue, making it much easier to remove.
5. Scrub Gently
Using circular motions, scrub the surface with a damp sponge or cloth. Apply slightly more pressure on stubborn areas, but be careful not to scratch delicate surfaces.
6. Rinse and Wipe
Once clean, wipe everything down with a clean, damp cloth to remove any residue. Repeat if necessary until the surface is spotless and fresh.
Final Tip
For best results, clean your oven and stovetop regularly. A little maintenance goes a long way in preventing heavy buildup and keeping your kitchen sparkling effortlessly.
