How To Clean Your Oven & Stove Top With Ease
With Christmas just around the corner, most ovens are about to get a serious workout! Cleaning your oven after making a roast, or your stovetop after making marmalade or gravy can be a daunting task, but by following a few simple cleaning hacks, you will have a sparkling clean oven, using innovative, eco-friendly products, in a fraction of the time that traditional products take.
Preparation
Before you begin, make sure you have these oven cleaning essentials:
- Scrub Daddy
- A bowl of clean, cold water
- A bowl of clean, warm water
- The Pink Stuff miracle cleaning paste
- A sponge
- Optional: microfibre cloth
Cleaning your stovetop
Start by removing any loose dirt of food that might be on your stovetop
Soak your Sponge Daddy in warm water (makes the sponge hard), and start cleaning the stovetop on one side
As your sponge becomes dirty, rinse it under cold water until clean, and then put the sponge back in the warm clean water to make it hard again
Repeat steps b and c until you have removed all of the foodstuff and marks off your stovetop
Rinse the Scrub Daddy clean and dip it in cold water (makes the sponge soft)
Wipe down any remaining residue with the soft Scrub Daddy
Cleaning your oven
Using a clean sponge, gently and generously apply The Pink Stuff to your oven door, bottom and walls
Dip the Scrub Daddy into clean cold water (makes the sponge soft) and wipe off The Pink Stuff
As the Scrub Daddy gets dirty, rinse it off in clean water
Repeat steps b and c until your oven is sparkling clean
For stubborn areas, leave The Pink Stuff on the oven for one to two minutes before wiping
Optional: wipe over the glass with a microfibre cloth
Cleaning oven racks
Using a clean sponge, gently apply The Pink Stuff to your oven racks
Rinse your racks under a tap in the sink until all of The Pink Stuff is removed
If necessary, repeat steps 1 and 2.
* DISCLAIMER: You should always test new products on your oven, stovetop and shelves before using them.
