My grandmother showed me 3 quick, super effective and economical tips to remove old dirt and grease from gas stoves.
1. Vinegar and Water Solution:
– Mix equal parts white vinegar and water in a spray bottle.
– Spray the solution onto the dirty and greasy areas of the stove.
– Allow it to sit for a few minutes to break down the grime.
– Wipe the surface with a damp cloth or sponge.
2. Baking Soda Paste:
– Create a paste by mixing baking soda with a small amount of water.
– Apply the paste to the greasy spots on the stove.
– Let it sit for about 15 minutes to allow the baking soda to absorb grease.
– Scrub the surface with a sponge or brush, then wipe it clean with a damp cloth.
3. Lemon and Salt Scrub:
– Cut a lemon in half and dip the cut side in salt.
– Scrub the dirty areas on the stove with the lemon and salt.
– The natural acidity of the lemon helps break down grease, while the salt acts as an abrasive cleaner.
– Wipe away any residue with a damp cloth.
Always ensure that the stove is cool before cleaning, and test the cleaning solution on a small, inconspicuous area first to avoid any potential damage.
