How To Clean Your Oven?
Invest in a good oven cleaner spray
There are a number of good oven cleaners on the market that can help make the job easier, so invest in a specialised oven cleaner like Oven Pride to make light work of the job. Make sure that you always read the instructions, as each solution will have different requirements – some may not be able to be used on particular surfaces like stainless steel.
Get your gloves on and windows open
Always make sure that you use cleaning gloves when cleaning your oven. This is because some oven cleaners can have strong chemicals. Opening any windows in the kitchen will ensure that your room is well ventilated from cleaning chemicals.
Take the oven shelves out
You can put your oven shelves in the dishwasher if they will fit. Otherwise, mix a solution of biological washing detergent and warm water and leave them to soak in a plastic container. This will help to dissolve any food or grime that may be stuck on. Then use a mild abrasive cleaner to scrub off any stubborn burnt on food or grease.
Check the door
Oven doors get stained from grease from cooking, this makes it hard for anyone to use the viewing panel. To clean the door, use a gentle abrasion sponge and use a oven cleaning spray to clean it. If you haven’t got any oven cleaner, you can use a bicarbonate of soda solution instead.
