    I'd use washing up liquid on a wet sponge, bit of elbow grease, then rinse and buff dry with a cloth. :)
  • Thanks, Will try that tonight as it looks a mess.

    i am sure somebody will jump in an correct me but, can you not you washing powder or dish washing powder, it will be abrasive and it breaks down proteins and fats. maybe test on a small area first.

    I use neat screenwash (car stuff) for cleaning indoor glass, especially the oven door. When you see the muck it gets off your windscreen you know it will do a lot for your glass indoors. Vinegar also works well but does take elbow grease.

  • I use a squirt of pound shop oven cleaner, no elbow grease required ;)

    I use a window paint scrapper to first get off as much grease as possible. Fairly cheap and may have pisked my last one up from £land. Then anything you use should come off easier. I have used ceramic hob cleaner in the past but as someone else said - test patch first for scratches. HTH

    Have to agree with katkin too, those wee window scrapers are ace!! Especially for sticky bits that kids have left everywhere :)

  • Hi,

    Thanks for all the replies.Im not sure im explaining it properly! the bits thats greasy is the fan over the cooker which has glass at the sides and the chimney in the middle.

    Wish me luck im away to make carrot cake for the first time ever! and them clean the glass on the fan.

    Thanks
