Oven cleaning

gien

Hello. I need to get my oven totally spotless (really, really super clean). It has a pyrolitic cleaning cycle which is good but I need to clean the doors and racks.

Do you have any recommendations for good products and any tips on getting it super clean without damaging the chrome and enamel finish?
Thanks!

I've just tried oven pride which was good on the racks but rubbish on the oven itself- for that I went back to mr muscle and it did the job.

also agree oven pride for racks. I left 3 (totally blackened )overnight in the bag and they just rinsed off next morning & they were gleaming

And you can get Oven Pride cleaner in the Pound Shop!

Don't the pyrolitic ovens clean the shelves and doors? For me, those bits are the most gruesome, so I feel a bit disillusioned.

Thanks everyone - I will look out for oven pride!

Yes, the pyrolysis programme does do very well on the sides and base of the over (reduces food spills to just ash) but doesn't do the door glass so well.
It also has to be almost new spotlessly clean, so I have to get into all the nooks a and crannies that the pyrolysis programme can't touch.

Recently I sprayed the inside glass door of my oven with Aldi's version of Cillit Bang. It comes in an orange bottle, pictured below.

I left it and went off to do the dishes. When I came back and went to wipe the glass when I was finished (maybe about 20 minutes later) I was really surprised to see it left the glass spotless, like really squeaky clean!

I thought it might just clean it a wee bit but it did an excellent job, it's a very big bottle so it lasts absolutely ages. Plus it doesn't smell too strong either. Not sure how it would work for the shelves, they may need something a bit more heavy duty.
