Leave the paste on for at least 30 minutes—or overnight for very stubborn grime.

Spray Vinegar

Pour vinegar into a spray bottle and lightly mist over the baking soda paste.

It will fizz, helping to lift the grime.

Wipe Clean

Use a damp cloth or sponge to wipe away the paste and loosened residue.

Repeat lightly if needed for any remaining spots.

Rinse and Dry

Wipe the oven with a clean, damp cloth to remove any leftover residue.

Dry with a paper towel or microfiber cloth.

Why It Works

Baking soda: gently abrasive, lifts grease and burnt food without harsh chemicals

Vinegar: reacts with baking soda to break down grime and neutralize odors

Optional lemon/essential oils: leave a fresh, clean scent

Tips

For extra tough stains, apply paste and cover with foil to let it penetrate overnight.

Use gloves if you have sensitive skin.

Clean your oven regularly to prevent heavy buildup.
