Equipment

  • spray bottle
  • Wire hanger

Ingredients

  • White vinegar
  • Dish soap
  • Paper towels
  • Scouring cloth
  • Rubber band

Instructions

  • Clean the exterior of your oven door with a solution of equal parts vinegar and dish soap.
  • Clean the inside of your oven door with the same cleaning solution, letting it sit for a few minutes before wiping with a paper towel or scouring cloth.
  • Open the drawer under the oven and remove it.
  • Unbend a wire hanger, straighten out one end, then couple of paper towels around the straightened end and secure them with a rubber band.
  • Saturate the paper towels with the vinegar and dish soap cleaning solution.
  • Locate the narrow holes on the bottom of your oven door, insert the paper towel-wrapped end of the hanger, and use it to wipe the inside of the glass clean.
  • If necessary, repeat with a dry paper towel to dry and buff the inside of the glass.

Notes

If your oven door doesn't have holes you can insert a cleaning tool through, you may have to take your oven door apart to clean it. You can typically learn how to do this in your oven's user manual, which you should be able to find online by searching your oven's manufacturer, make, and model number.
