Removing the grease and buildup is a procedure that requires a few cleaning ingredients that you most likely already own. Does this Spark an idea?

Things You'll Need

• Dish soap
• Oil soap
• 3 cleaning rags

Instructions

1. Squirt 2 tbsp. of dish soap into your kitchen sink and fill the sink with about 1 gallon warm water.

2. Dip a cleaning rag into the soapy water and wring out the rag.

3. Wipe the rag over your kitchen cupboards, dipping the rag back into the soapy water after every few wipes and wringing the rag back out.

4. Drain the water from your sink and select a new cleaning rag. Run the rag under plain warm water and wring it out.

5. Wipe the damp rag over your cabinets to get rid of any leftover soap.
