Cleaning oven door glass doesn’t have to be a huge chore! Here’s a simple, effective trick that uses items you likely already have at home:
Simple Oven Glass Cleaning Trick
What You Need
- Baking soda (1/4–1/2 cup)
- Water (enough to make a paste)
- Vinegar (optional, for extra shine)
- Soft cloth or sponge
- Old toothbrush (for corners)
Steps
- Make a paste
- Mix baking soda with just enough water to form a thick paste.
- Apply to the glass
- Spread the paste over the inside of the oven door glass. Focus on greasy or baked-on spots.
- Let it sit
- Leave the paste on for 15–30 minutes (longer for tough grease).
- Scrub gently
- Use a soft cloth or sponge to scrub. An old toothbrush works well for corners and edges.
- Wipe clean
- Use a damp cloth to remove the paste.
- Optional vinegar rinse
- Spray a little vinegar on the glass to remove any leftover residue and make it shine.
- Dry
- Wipe with a clean dry cloth for a sparkling finish.
Tips
- Avoid harsh steel wool—it can scratch the glass.
- For very stubborn grease, leave the paste overnight and rinse in the morning.
- Regular cleaning (every few weeks) keeps buildup from getting too tough.
