@@tracydavis7705 No, I didn't. I just followed what she did, but I think I didn't let it sit overnight, which I probably should have. Not all the grease came off, but it made a big difference. The smell was just so strong (though the plastic wrap really helped) that I couldn't wait to get it all off.

[@amycheung2]

I'd add though, be careful if you have older pipes (like I do) and if you decide to dispose of the unused Ammonia solution. I googled and found that I could pour it into the sink as long as I do it slowly and turn the tap on to dilute it, but we ended up getting a small leak under the sink after pouring out the ammonia, which we don't know if it had to do with the solution being too strong.

Am writing from Nairobi, Kenya and watched your video a few days ago. I had to try your idea. We don't have Dollar Tree here so to get ammonia and large Ziploc bags is not possible. I managed to get ammonia solution from a supplier of lab chemicals at a cost of 1.5 dollars. I had to soak my stove top for 2 nights and a day. I was amazed when all the gung and grime came away. It was so hard like cement and I had totally given up on it. Now its like new. Thanks so much

My mom was doing that back in the 1050’s. works like a champ. I go to dollar tree and buy containers of ammonia water. Have a tub with cover that I fill with ammonia water. soak all items from stove top over night. Do the exact same thing with paper towels and saran wrap for the stove top. As for the oven, get a 9 x 13 glass cake pan put a dish cloth inside and fill half way up with ammonia water. Heat your oven to 350, turn oven off and place cake pan in oven. you will. e surprised as to what you find in the morning. All the mess will be on the floor of the oven. Just wipe out with paper towels. The oven walls, racks and ceiling will be shiny clean.

@@gordanazakula5669 You already know, but it's never too late to repeat it to others: NEVER use ammonia and bleach together. Combined they make poisonous gas. There are other things that are dangerous with bleach, such as vinegar and acetone (nail polish remover.) ALWAYS follow INSTRUCTIONS and PRECAUTIONS which are written on ANY chemical product: cleaners, paint, pesticides, you name it. I just heard that using two different drain cleaners on one clogged pipe can cause damage! Be careful, be safe everyone.

[@Mixdplate]

I've come across stoves in a few investment rental properties we took on. Being a clean freak myself and budget conscious, I would clean the stove rather than purchase new. I used the same method with fantastic, like new results. Putting all loose pieces that can be removed in gallon zip lock bags with 1/4 cup of ammonia in each bag, then put them all in a large heavy duty trash bag. Leave the bag outside overnight or in a well ventilated room. If the stove is gas, I turn off the gas line (and pilot if there is one), then spray the remainder of the stove with ammonia, cut open a trash bag or two and cover the stove and seal with painters tape. If necessary, protect any flooring or other surfaces around the stove. The next morning, the majority of all the grease and grime wipes or washes away with water. Very minimal scrubbing was needed. However, the fumes are very strong! I wear a ventilated mask and chemical resistant gloves while prepping and cleaning. Actually, the smaller parts that I were placed in bags are opened and rinsed with a hose, then brought inside for a thorough wash in sudsy water. One thing to be careful of is any painted/printed areas. These days most of the indicator markings for the knobs and functioning components can easily rub off with aggressive cleaning products.

[@cathrineosberg292]

I used to clean rental units and houses as a RE Management professional. To clean greasy baked on gunk from stove burners and grids, as well as broilers and oven racks, I always used plain non-sudsy ammonia. Place all removable parts into a black hole-less garbage bag add 1/2 cup to 1 cup ammonia to either a dense sponge or pad of rags and then tie the bag shut. Place outside in the hot sunlight and let this sit for several hours or even overnight.The ammonia fumes do most of the work. Meanwhile clean the rest of the stove! After several hours I would use a pressure attachment on a hose and rinse all the gunk away outside on the lawn. Most times the water would clean the stove parts right down to the metal with no scrubbing whatsoever! Good as new without scrubbing. And ammonia is safe for grass--it adds nitrogen to the soil and acts like fertilizer!

I recently cleaned a GE gas stove and used AWESOME cleaner. I soaked the burner pans and grates in a bucket of hot water and CASCADE COMPLETE LIQUID. I was able to wipe the burner pans reasonably clean and I scrapped off the soaked burned on goo that resulted on the grates. I rinsed the grates and then put them in a self-cleaning oven (not in the stove I was cleaning) for 4 hours and they came out super clean (so did the oven). What you can't easily remove is the rust that results from the moisture in the long-standing grease. And, also, you need to lift the stove-top up and clean all of the goo that has dripped down inside of the stove. You can remove the burners to make the underside easier to clean. There is a lot to do, but yes, the 18-year-old stove I brought back into service is now clean and since it has a brand new GE microwave above it, it almost looks new even by comparison.

Ammonia and SOS pad is what I used to clean when my parents has rentals

[@gennafer]

I came looking for help because my stove is so hard to clean I don’t do it as much as I should or want to. After watching this I went and found some ammonia I had in the garage and am currently soaking my stove top overnight. Thank you!

[@theresak4343]

Jennifer, did you get the same results? We are about to try this for grease streaks down the side of a rental stove; we're going to spray the ammonia on, put paper towels on it, and leave for as long as the towels don't fall down.

[@gennafer]

@@theresak4343 It does work but it smells so bad! :D

[@theresak4343]

@@gennafer Jennifer, we did it! Yes, the smell was awful, and of course we had all the windows open; we saved the stove, saving us $800.

[@gracehall9199]

Definitely work in a very well ventilated area. My mom use to use this to clean out red carpet. I’d also wear both latex gloves with powdered rubber gloves. You don’t want that touching your skin, just like you wouldn’t dip your hands in pure bleach.

Can you please share a bathtub cleaning video? Tips and tricks, lol. Lots of love from California. Thank you ❤️❤️❤️

[@CleanFreakGermaphobe]

We can do that. We will put that on our list. Thanks. 😃

Dawn dish liquid & a broom

Biological washing powder detergent can be used to clean the stove top. With hot water poured over the top. Set the oven on the lowest setting for about 5 minutes to maintain the heat and it should be easier to get the grease off because the enzymes in the biological detergent break down the grease. I've used this method on multiple occasions.Make sure you turn the oven off before cleaning. Using the powder acts as a minor abrasive. If you can remove the grates and the burners you can fill a sink with boiling water, sprinkle the biological washing powder on the top and leave for about 30 minutes.

Great video!! Congratulations on your baby. ❤️ I have a black and stainless steel looking stove. I've never had a black stove and it's driving me nuts how everything shows on it. Will ammonia work on it, or can it damage it? Thanks in advance.

[@BelfastBailey]

I CANNOT WAIT to try this! I think I’m out of ammonia right now, and Walmart closes in 30 minutes (and the nasty wind whipped up tonight here in Iowa.) BUT THANK YOU!!!

[@BelfastBailey]

OH…MY…GOSH! THANK YOU!!! SPOTLESS NOW!!! ❤️

I absolutely LOVE this video! I am amazed! Blessings to you and your family for helping him. I’m trying ammonia. 💚

[@CleanFreakGermaphobe]

Thanks. I just had some feed back from the gentleman we helped just last night, he said it is so much easier to keep clean now that it is already clean😃

My gosh….that’s absolutely AMAZING,!! I put ammonia on my shopping list so I can get rid of some gunk I’ve been fighting with😎

[@wendyhannan2454]

Great job, thanks for helping this elder man, I’m sure he’s very happy with the result so far.

[@Cheryl-f3c]

This method worked beautifully! I let mine soak for 24 hours, and the gunk just peeled right off!!

[@shaymonique192]

I'm so excited to try this, do you think this will also work on air fryers

[@onlychild4332]

Do you think, it is safe to use ammonia on stainless steel stove tops? Please reply. So happy to see people helping old people in need. Stay blessed 🙂

[@CleanFreakGermaphobe]

Diana may chime in here but I wouldn't. If you have or can find the manufacturer's instructions it can give details. Ammonia can be corrosive on stainless steel. There are many types of stainless and they are respond differently.

[@roxannagoughnour9183]

I am amazed! I am nervous about cleaning my gas stove top! Not used to gas stoves period. I am soaking parts in dawn and no idea how I'm going to get into the bottom areas but one step at a time. But I am going to try this method if I cant get it clean without scrubbing forever.

I gave myself bronchitis from using ammonia! Never again.

[@suzanneu2]

When I moved into my little condo home, the stove was really bad. Not as bad as the stove you’re doing. But my stove was bad. And I took all the pans out and the racks and the burners everything that I could take out and I put them outside in a big heavy duty garbage bag and sprayed easy off on them. This was January so it was cold weather, but it was a sunny day, and the bag heated up really fast. So I let it sit three or four hours while I tackled the inside of the stove which was really bad. So I finally got it all cleaned on the inside of the stove and I went outside with a big bucket of soapy water and another bucket of clean water and I rinsed everything off and washed it and the soapy water and rinse it in the clean water and let it dry and then put the garbage bag in the dumpster. About three months later I ended up getting my kitchen redone because IKEA had a special and it included new appliances. But the stove looked a whole lot better when I was done. I wish I would’ve thought about using ammonia with paper towels on the inside of the stove. But on the other hand I have asthma and thatMight have really done me in.

[@biggargantuar5672]

Does this work with open burner stoves? The ammonia might spill into the stove and I hope that doesn’t cause a problem

[@marinac9854]

Well if I remember correctly the stove top just opens up so you can clean down there, maybe use the paper towel method near the eyes of the stove so you don't make too much of a mess and then open the stove top somewhere near the end or at the end of your cleaning session to wash up anything that might have fallen in there throughout the process or overtime beforehand?

[@CPORD-ss2db]

You are a magician!

[@NieceyP05]

Dawn dish detergent and comet with bleach powder. Best duo ever

[@MESDR6886]

If you are able to do a self clean mode on the oven, you could place all the burners, catch trays, and burner covers on one of the oven racks and let it all run in there, one and done, then come back later when its no longer hot and do the ammonia wrap on the bare top, and wipe out the oven ash. It might be a bit quicker in the long run?

[@kimpaynter]

Bless your heart to take the time to go and do that. What a great video on cleaning, but again bless your heart.

[@aptorres01]

U just saved my stove thank you so much !

[@CleanFreakGermaphobe]

So glad I could help

[@LizaBMarie]

Omgosh I absolutely love what you did. It looks so amazing, and I’m looking forward to part two, whenever it comes (unless it’s out lol, I’ll go hunt through your videos cuz I was about to binge then anyway!) I love cleaning, especially when it’s to help someone else out & I also have ocd, so I completely understand how hard that had to be to walk away from it unfinished. I would imagine your relative was over the moon about the state of it though. It really did look amazing at the end, compared to what it started as & how long you had to work with!

[@chirp-chirp6504]

P.S. I've used the paper towel idea before. It helps when gravity is working against you like on the hood.
