Baking soda – Dissolves grease and softens soot.
White vinegar – A powerful degreaser that removes encrusted residue.
Black soap or dishwashing liquid – Helps break down soot deposits.
Lemon juice – Neutralizes odors and gives a shiny effect to metal.
Newspaper or an old sponge – Ideal for scrubbing without scratching.
A stiff-bristled brush or a metal sponge – For the dirtiest parts.
A microfiber cloth – For the final touch and to restore shine.
Step by Step: How to Make Your Stove Shine Again
Prepare the cleaning solution
Add a little hot water and mix well to obtain a smooth paste.
Apply the paste to dirty surfaces
Using a sponge or cloth, apply the paste generously to the soot and black deposits. Let it sit for 15-20 minutes – this is essential for the natural ingredients to dissolve the dirt without you having to scrub too hard.
Scrub with the right technique
For light deposits, use crumpled newspaper and scrub gently.
For very dirty areas, take a stiff-bristled brush or a metal sponge and use circular motions.
My aunt’s tip: add a pinch of salt to the sponge for a slightly abrasive effect, but without scratching the metal.
Rinse and dry
Wipe with a damp cloth to remove all residue of the cleaning paste. Dry immediately with a clean microfiber cloth to avoid streaks.
The Result: A Clean and Sparkling Stove!
As soon as you’re done, you’ll see a dramatic difference. The soot and grease will be gone, and the stove surface will shine like new.
Bonus Tip: To prevent soot from building up again too quickly, apply a few drops of vegetable oil to a clean cloth and lightly rub the metal surfaces of the stove. This creates a thin protective layer that helps prevent dirt from adhering as easily.
