Here’s a clear, step-by-step guide for cleaning between the glass on your oven door safely and effectively:
How to Clean Between the Glass on Your Oven Door — A Simple Trick
Oven glass can get greasy and grimy over time, and the space between the panes is notoriously hard to reach. With this simple trick, you can get it sparkling again.
What You’ll Need
- Baking soda
- White vinegar
- Warm water
- Soft cloth or sponge
- Toothbrush or small scrub brush
- Spray bottle (optional)
- Screwdriver (if needed to remove the oven door)
Steps
- Remove the oven door (optional but easier)
- Many ovens allow you to lift and remove the door.
- Check your oven manual for instructions.
- Mix a cleaning paste
- Combine ½ cup baking soda with a few tablespoons of water until you get a thick paste.
- Apply the paste
- Using a soft cloth or sponge, apply the paste to the greasy areas between the glass.
- Let it sit
- Leave the paste for 15–20 minutes to break down grime and grease.
- Scrub gently
- Use a toothbrush or small scrub brush to reach tight corners and edges.
- Spray with vinegar
- Lightly spray white vinegar over the baking soda paste. It will fizz and help lift stubborn dirt.
- Wipe clean
- Use a damp cloth to wipe away the paste and loosened grime. Repeat if necessary.
- Dry and reassemble
- Dry the glass thoroughly with a clean cloth.
- Reattach the oven door if you removed it.
Tips
- Protect hands: Wear gloves if you have sensitive skin.
- Avoid harsh chemicals: Oven-safe glass can scratch or get damaged with abrasive cleaners.
- Regular maintenance: Wipe spills promptly to prevent buildup between the panes.
