2. Apply the Paste to the Glass
Open your oven door and spread the paste across the inside glass panel. Be generous, especially on stubborn spots or corners.
3. Let It Sit
Let the paste sit for 15–30 minutes. This gives the baking soda time to break down grease, carbon buildup, and grime.
4. Wipe Clean
Use a damp cloth or sponge to gently scrub and remove the paste. For any tough spots, carefully use a razor blade scraper held at a flat angle—never use it aggressively, and only on the glass (not on rubber seals).
5. Spray with Vinegar
Spritz a light layer of white vinegar onto the glass. It will react with any leftover baking soda, bubbling slightly. This step helps cut through remaining grease and leaves the glass streak-free.
6. Final Wipe
Wipe everything down with a clean, dry microfiber cloth until the glass is clear and gleaming.
⚠️ Extra Tips
- Always check your oven manual before using scrapers or homemade cleaners.
- For double-pane oven doors, you may need to remove a panel to clean between the glass—check your manufacturer’s instructions for safe disassembly.
- Avoid abrasive steel wool or harsh chemical oven cleaners unless absolutely necessary—they can damage finishes and glass coatings.
