A Simple Trick to Clean Your Oven Door Glass
Cleaning oven glass can be frustrating, especially when grease and baked-on food leave stubborn stains. Fortunately, there’s a simple, natural trick that makes your oven glass sparkling clean without harsh chemicals.
What You’ll Need
- Baking soda – 3 tablespoons
- Water – 1–2 tablespoons
- White vinegar (optional) – a few drops
- Soft cloth or sponge
- Rubber gloves (optional)
Step-by-Step Cleaning Method
1. Make a Baking Soda Paste
- Mix baking soda and water to form a thick paste.
- Optionally, add a few drops of white vinegar for extra cleaning power.
2. Apply the Paste
- Spread the paste evenly over the inside of the oven glass, focusing on greasy or stained areas.
- Let it sit for 15–30 minutes to allow the paste to break down grime.
3. Wipe the Glass
- Use a damp cloth or sponge to wipe away the paste and loosened dirt.
- For stubborn spots, scrub gently in a circular motion.
4. Rinse and Dry
- Wipe the glass with a clean, damp cloth to remove any residue.
- Dry with a soft towel for a streak-free finish.
Tips for Best Results
- For very tough stains, leave the paste on for 1–2 hours before wiping.
- Avoid abrasive scrubbers that can scratch the glass.
- Regularly wiping the glass after cooking prevents buildup and makes cleaning easier.
Why This Works
- Baking soda is a mild abrasive that helps remove grease without scratching glass.
- Vinegar reacts with grease and baking soda to break down stubborn residue.
