Things You'll Need:
- Sponge
- Magic Eraser
- Wet Rag
- Baking Soda
-
Step 1
Make sure the oven is completely cool before you start trying to clean the gas oven.
-
Step 2
While the oven racks are still in place quickly scrape any burned on food so that it falls to bottom of the oven.
-
Step 3
Remove the oven racks and place them in the sink.
-
Step 4
If you have burned on food (ie cheese from pizza), stuck to the oven floor, use a rubber flipping spatula to get it loose.
-
Step 5
Use a wet paper towel to pick up as much of the burned food as you can.
-
Step 6
Slightly moisten a magic eraser and begin cleaning the walls and floor, as well as the oven door.
-
Step 7
The next step in cleaning the gas oven is to wipe the entire thing down with a wet rag.
-
Step 8
Sprinkle a generous amount of baking soda all over the inside of the oven. Use a slightly wet rag to work the baking soda into a paste. Let it sit in the gas oven for about 30 minutes.
-
Step 9
While you're waiting, clean the oven racks with hot soapy water. The rough side of a sponge should be enough to remove any crusted on food.
-
Step 10
Return to the actual oven cleaning by using the rough side of a sponge in a circular motion. Concentrate on cleaning small areas.
-
Step 11
When you've finished cleaning the entire gas oven wipe it down, again, with a wet rag. Be sure to remove all of the baking soda.
-
Step 12
If you still don't have a clean oven you may need to get an oven cleaner. Just make sure it's safe to use in a gas oven.
