How to clean your oven

Before you start cleaning make sure your oven is cold (and if it is electric, make sure the main switch is off).

Method 1

Oven racks

• Take the racks out of the oven and remove any gunk and stuck-on food.
• Put them in a large container (such as a large, plastic storage container) with your preferred cleaning solution. Leave them overnight or for at least 5 to 6 hours.  
• Remove the racks and scrub them with hot soapy water to remove any remaining residue. Rinse and dry.
  

Oven interior

• Remove all the loose bits of food and other gunk.
• Apply your preferred cleaning solution as per the instructions. Leave it for the required time.
• Use a non-scratch scourer to start scrubbing the grime and grease.
• Use a damp cloth to wipe down the oven.  
• If the oven still has any grime and residue, repeat the process.  Once you are happy, leave the oven door open and allow to dry.
  

Glass door

• Open the door so it lays flat and remove any loose grime.  
• Apply your cleaning product of choice as per the instructions.
• Scrub the glass gently with a sponge and use an old toothbrush to reach into the corners.
• Wipe with a damp cloth and then dry with a dry cloth.  
• Don’t try to clean in between the glass in the oven door. You may break the oven door and will have to pay for another one.

Method 2

• Call your local oven cleaning professional and they will have the oven looking like new!
• If the door seal is removable, a professional oven cleaner will also be able clean the space between the glass.  
• It’s a stress-free solution. You sit back while someone else does the hard work and you know your bond is safe.
