- Prepare the Mixture: In a small bowl or container, combine equal parts baking soda and water to form a paste-like consistency. For a deeper clean, you can add a few drops of dish soap to the mixture. If desired, you can also add a few drops of your favorite essential oils for a pleasant fragrance.
- Apply the Cleaner: Using a spatula or brush, spread the homemade cleaner evenly over the interior surfaces of your oven, focusing on areas with heavy grease and grime buildup. Be generous with the application, ensuring that all surfaces are thoroughly coated with the cleaning paste.
- Let It Sit: Once applied, allow the homemade cleaner to sit for at least 30 minutes, or preferably overnight for tougher stains and buildup. The baking soda will work its magic by breaking down the grease and grime, making it easier to remove.
- Activate the Cleaning Power: After the designated waiting period, it’s time to activate the cleaning power of the homemade cleaner. Pour white vinegar into a spray bottle and liberally spray the interior surfaces of the oven, directly onto the baking soda paste. The vinegar will react with the baking soda, creating a foaming action that helps lift away dirt and stains.
- Scrub (or Not): Depending on the level of dirt and buildup, you may need to gently scrub the oven surfaces with a sponge, brush, or scrubbing pad to help loosen any remaining residue. However, in many cases, the foaming action of the baking soda and vinegar will do the heavy lifting for you, requiring minimal scrubbing effort.
- Wipe Clean: Using a damp cloth or sponge, wipe away the baking soda paste and dissolved grease and grime from the oven surfaces. You may need to rinse and wring out the cloth or sponge several times to ensure thorough cleaning.
- Inspect and Repeat (if necessary): Once the cleaning process is complete, inspect the oven surfaces to ensure that all dirt and residue have been removed. If stubborn stains persist, you can repeat the cleaning process as needed until desired results are achieved.
