Some oven doors come off. Because when you clean your oven, you have to stand on your head!!! I’ll try the dawn power wash, but maybe not quite so much if it! The secret I found when I got a brand new stove, is not to let your oven get dirty in the first place. Take care of it as soon as your done using it. It just me who uses it now, so I can do that. But in the old days of a large family, time doesn’t always permit that. Great video, you hard working lady!! From Idaho

Hi Emmaline! I enjoyed your Dawn Powerwash Oven Cleaning video. I’ve been using Dawn Powerwash on greasy pots & pans. If I wipe the Dawn & grease off with paper towels, the rinsing out is much easier. So, I think that if you used paper towels to wipe out the oven, THEN used the sponge to rinse the residue off, you wouldn’t have to deal with so much soap. You are much better than I am at tearing off cling wrap. I read a tip saying to freeze your cling wrap first, then tearing it off is easy. So, I’ve got my wrap (in a plastic bag) in the freezer, my Powerwash, & several rolls of paper towels ready to go! Thank you for your wonderful videos!

My comment left before I could finish. As I was going to say, regardless of whether you use either of the techniques, it only works when the oven is lightly soiled, not heavily soiled. You have to repeat again on both methods. Just clean up spills after you bake. If you don't have time, put salt on it to soak up the spill and later crystallize. Clean up later.

That was a clean oven before you started!!!!!! You want to see a really dirty oven, I've got one. I had been pretty lax cleaning it even though it's a self clean for quite a few years, then when I moved into this house the movers lost a box that had all the instructions for all my appliances along with some of my favourite cook books (of course) I can't remember how to do the self clean thing. I got some Dawn Power wash this week and sprayed some on my disgusting door and a bit in the two front corners of the oven which were black, left it on for maybe 15 minutes and I was amazed they came out very clean. I was excited to try it but it was 10 pm and I wasn't about to start a full clean then, I just wanted to have a quick little look. I did buy a large bottle of Dawn and I intend to try your "recipe" with that on my horrible oven but I will warm it up first, mine goes down to 100 degrees (I believe) and stays warm for at least two hours. It's convection, I must tell you it has literally years of crud in it as I only use my oven for baking and the odd casserole as I prefer my air fryer and instant Pot for most other things. So here goes but I'm confident I'll be happy. It sure is a keeper. Thanks for telling me about Dawn.

You made a bad assumption that you need to start with a hot oven. This isn't lye-based oven cleaner. It's actually counterproductive. The "magic ingredient" in Powerwash is denatured alcohol, the very first ingredient on the label. The rest of the ingredients are basically diluted Dawn detergent. By starting hot, you're evaporating much of the alcohol on contact, which also negates the point of covering with plastic wrap. You'll have already gotten rid of most of the cleaning power. You're better off starting with a cold oven. The alcohol will stay in the suds longer and you won't need the plastic wrap. The alcohol acts as a solvent to soften and dissolve the grease, then the surfactants keep them suspended.

Thanks for doing these videos. I have been asking myself though, am I the only person who lines the bottom of my oven with wide heavy duty aluminum foil? I assume there is some reason you are not supposed to do it but I've been doing it for years. Just swap out the aluminum foil when it gets too bad. Makes one less hard-to-reach surface that you have to put a lot of sweat into when you do a real oven cleaning. Also, I have not seen anyone use one of those battery powered hand held power scrubbers? I have one and I love it for jobs like this.

@@WisdomPreserved Thanks for the response, that makes sense re the aluminum foil. I have a very old oven with the heating element exposed. In addition to the hand held, I have a long handled power scrubber made by Bell & Howell which was branded for Hammacher Schlemmer (discontinued but the regular branded one might be as good). It is a life saver for cleaning the tub/shower, and would probably be helpful for the back of the oven if you had a separate set of brushes for kitchen/bathroom.

Is it bad to use the self cleaning option that comes with the oven?
@WisdomPreserved Жыл бұрын
The self-cleaning feature works well but the fumes smell terrible. It can result in a buildup of carbon monoxide in the air that will exacerbate asthma or respiratory disease, and negatively affect household animals. The other issue I have heard is that the high heat for a prolonged period actually decreases the lifespan of your oven.

We recently had a wall oven installed with a kitchen reno. The technician told us that the self clean function will burn out the electrical components of the oven due to the high temperature. I will definitely be purchasing Dawn Powerwash.

Why are you not using the Self Cleaning option of the oven as it is an easier and neater process?
@WisdomPreserved Жыл бұрын
There are two reasons: 1. The fumes created from the self-cleaning are not good for humans or their pets. 2. The sustained high temperatures reduce the lifespan of the unit. There is always a trade off. Like the saying: "Good, fast or cheap. You can only pick two."

Is the steam of the Dawn better for your health than the smell of the burn off from a self clean oven ???

While liquid dish soap has some additives and preservatives that make vapors bad to breathe in, fumes from oven cleaning can be particularly bad for someone with asthma or respiratory problems. Inhaling the fumes can cause breathing issues, sweating, coughing, and flu-like symptoms. If you have breathing issues it may be a good idea to either apply the detergent with the oven cold or allow it to just barely get warm so it doesn't vaporize the power wash when you apply it.

Do you use microfiber cloth’s?

You could if you wanted to. We often use crocheted wash clothes or just old rags.

My question is with all the dry soap did it have lot's of fuams or did you rinse after ?
@WisdomPreserved Жыл бұрын
I wiped it down with a wet wash cloth until there wasn't any soap left. A trick would be to spray it with a little distilled vinegar and wipe out with a wet cloth. The vinegar would kill the soap very quickly.

If you dont get it rinsed enough, there are a ton of fumes. No matter how many yimes I tried to wipe it off, there was still soap

I've learned that using a balled-up piece of aluminum foil (about a foot long piece) makes a truly excellent scrubber. It took off heavily baked-on food with very little scrubbing effort and no scratches.

From a senior's point of view, I prefer the basic method. This one is more expensive and more difficult to do. Such waste in cling wrap plus the Powerwash. I don't think it is easier than the basic method.

Not to be critical...but let's work smarter not harder. The cling wrap is too much for me! What about turning on the automatic oven cleaner and just walk away!!! 🤔
@WisdomPreserved8 ай бұрын
I have heard some people omit the cling wrap and that it still worked well. The primary reasons to not use the self cleaner is that it puts horrible fumes in the air and the extreme temperatures for long lengths of time will burn out your appliance faster. It's all about what is most important to you. These are just options.

It is hard to believe people let their ovens get so dirty. I stopped using my oven. I have a convection, toaster oven and I clean it with the Dawn Powerwash on a sponge; cook steaks on BBQ and clean with Dawn Powerwash. My BBQ is a two burner which makes it easy to clean. Use a microfiber cloth to clean off Powerwash. I wash the microfiber cloths. If very dirty soak in laundry tub with Dawn or Tide before putting in washer.

We have a Maytag Gemini which uses that self cleaning cycle. Takes forever and doesn't get that clean. I tried the vinegar, Dawn, baking soda on only the door. It got mostly clean. Glass could use a second cleaning. Not sure what's in the powerwash? Is it ok for self cleaning ovens?

Yes, it is . My aunts oven that I used for this oven is a self-cleaning oven and it did not affect the oven in any way.

I had a appliance repair man tell me never use the self cleaning option. It gets it so hot it has started fires & eventually it's going to effect the internals of the oven. I've honestly never used it. Some ppl are sold in it & won't use any other way.
