    If the Mr M is the strong one that virtually says 'stand back and don't breathe' then yes, it is good - i prefer the foamy spray as i find it's easier to get around the inside of the oven than the OP gel.

    I also found it does just as good a job as the deal I got of Group0n for someone to come in anclean my oven for £20 :mad:

    Just don't get it on any nickel plated surfaces as it will either leave a white mark or eat through the finish (as does OP)... slightly annoying as our oven door handles have the brushed nickel plated finish :eek: (and I DO have a spare oven door handles stashed on the loft just in case after a previous mis hap :rotfl:)

    Thanks Kerri for info I know you have to be careful using the OP and the fumes catch your breath the cloth used to disintegrate so must have been some powerful stuff. The Mr Muscle sounds easier to use as foam so think might be on my list for tomorrow

    Morning Everyone! :)

    Woke up to an email from an Ebay seller who says she can't sell for the price we won the auction for and wants more money. Told her where to get off! I have never come across this before.
