✨ How to Quickly and Easily Remove All Grease from Kitchen Cabinets

Greasy kitchen cabinets — we’ve all been there. Whether it’s from daily cooking or years of build-up, that sticky film of grease mixed with dust can make your cabinets look dull and feel unpleasant to the touch. But don’t worry — you don’t need expensive cleaners or hours of scrubbing. With the right technique and a few common household ingredients, you can remove all that stubborn grease quickly and easily.

Let’s get your cabinets back to their original shine with this simple step-by-step guide!

🧼 Why Do Cabinets Get So Greasy?

Every time you cook, especially with oils or butter, microscopic grease particles float through the air and settle on nearby surfaces. Over time, they mix with dust, creating a sticky, hard-to-remove layer on your cabinet doors, handles, and frames — especially those closest to the stove.

🧂 What You’ll Need:

Warm water
White vinegar (a natural degreaser)
Baking soda (for extra cleaning power)
Dish soap (cuts through grease)
Microfiber cloth or sponge
Old toothbrush or soft brush (for corners and grooves)
Optional: lemon essential oil for scent and added grease-fighting power

🧽 Step-by-Step: Clean Greasy Kitchen Cabinets

Step 1: Create a DIY Degreasing Solution

In a spray bottle or bowl, mix:

1 cup warm water
1/2 cup white vinegar
A few drops of dish soap
Optional: 5 drops of lemon essential oil

This solution is gentle, natural, and safe for most cabinet surfaces (wood, laminate, and painted).

Step 2: Spray and Wipe

Spray the solution generously onto the greasy areas.
Let it sit for 2–3 minutes to break down the grease.
Wipe with a microfiber cloth or sponge using circular motions.

🔄 Repeat as needed for thicker grease layers.

Step 3: Tackle Tough Grease with Baking Soda

For stubborn spots:

Sprinkle baking soda directly on a damp sponge or cloth.
Gently scrub the greasy area — baking soda acts as a mild abrasive without damaging the surface.
Wipe clean with a damp cloth to remove any residue.

Step 4: Detail the Crevices

Use an old toothbrush dipped in the cleaning solution to scrub around:

Cabinet handles and knobs
Corners and creases
Moldings and decorative grooves

This lifts grease from the hard-to-reach spots.
