Oven cleaning & the magic power of dishwasher tablets

Dishwasher tablets are not just for cleaning dishes; they contain powerful ingredients that effectively break down grease and dirt. Their abrasive structure makes them great for cleaning other surfaces in the household, including the oven.

Oven cleaning process with dishwasher tablets

  1. Preparation: First, put on rubber gloves, as the tablets can be harsh on the skin. Open the oven and remove the racks and baking trays.
  2. Soak the tablet: Dip the dishwasher tablet in warm water for a few seconds to soften it slightly but not disintegrate.
  3. Interior cleaning: Gently rub the moistened tablet over the dirty surfaces of the oven. Start at the door, where the most grease tends to accumulate. As you rub, the tablet will release detergent that will break down dirt, while its rough texture will help remove dried-on particles.
  4. Cleaning the grilles: You can soak the grates in hot water with a dissolved dishwasher tablet. After about 30 minutes, wipe them with a sponge or cloth.
  5. Removing residues: After cleaning the inside of the oven, wipe all surfaces with a paper towel to remove any detergent residue. Then wipe again with a damp cloth to ensure that no traces of detergent remain.

Additional tips:

  • Universality of tablets: Dishwasher tablets can also be used to clean other surfaces such as sinks, bathtubs, taps and even PVC garden furniture.
  • Caution: Always use gloves and ensure the area is well ventilated while cleaning.

With this simple trick, your oven can shine without too much effort. Dishwasher tablets are truly a hidden gem in the world of cleaning that even the best housewives already know. Why not give it a try?
