Does the inside of your oven door still look grimy even after using the self-cleaning feature for hours? Don’t worry—we’ve got a quick and healthy solution for you! With this simple trick, you can clean oven glass without any harsh chemicals.
What You’ll Need:
- Utility blade (sharp and clean)
- Paper towels
- Baking soda
- Water
- Nylon scrubbing pad
Step 1: Clean the Oven Glass with a Utility Blade
- Make sure the oven is cool and the glass is dry.
- Take a sharp utility blade and hold it at an angle.
- Gently scrape the glass in long, even strokes. Avoid concentrating on small spots to prevent visible scratches.
- Wipe the blade clean with a paper towel after every stroke to remove the residue.
- Repeat as needed, replacing the blade if it becomes dull. Severe grime may require two or three fresh blades.
Step 2: Tackle the Rest of the Oven with Baking Soda Paste
- Mix baking soda and water to form a paste.
- Spread the paste over the dirty surfaces of your oven.
- Let it sit for at least two hours to loosen the grime.
- Use a nylon scrubbing pad to wipe away the paste and residue.
- Rinse thoroughly with a damp cloth to leave your oven sparkling clean.
Why It Works
Using a utility blade removes tough, baked-on grime from the glass without scratching, while the baking soda paste is an effective, non-toxic cleaner for the rest of the oven.
Final Tip
