Introduction:
Kitchen cabinets, especially those near the stove or cooking area, can quickly accumulate grease and grime over time. Not only does this make your kitchen look untidy, but it can also be difficult to clean with conventional cleaning products. If you’re tired of using harsh chemicals or scrubbing endlessly to remove grease, we’ve got a genius tip that will make your cabinets shine like new. This simple, natural solution requires minimal effort, saving you time and energy while effectively removing stubborn grease. Whether you’re tackling a minor buildup or deep grease stains, this method will leave your kitchen looking spotless.
Ingredients:
1/4 cup baking soda
1/4 cup dish soap (preferably degreasing formula)
1 tablespoon white vinegar
Warm water
Soft microfiber cloth or sponge
Optional: Lemon juice (for extra fresh scent)
Instructions:
Prepare the cleaning mixture: In a small bowl, mix the baking soda with the dish soap. The baking soda will act as a mild abrasive, while the dish soap helps break down the grease. Add 1 tablespoon of white vinegar to the mixture to create a fizzy reaction that will help lift the grime. If you want a fresh, citrusy scent, add a few drops of lemon juice.
Dilute with water: Slowly add warm water to the mixture, stirring until you have a thick paste-like consistency. The paste should be easy to spread but not too runny. If the paste is too thick, add a little more water to reach the desired consistency.
Apply to greasy areas: Take a soft microfiber cloth or sponge, dip it into the paste, and apply it directly to the greasy spots on your kitchen cabinets. Focus on the areas that have the heaviest grease buildup, such as the cabinet faces and handles. Be sure to apply a generous layer of the mixture to these spots.
Let it sit: Allow the mixture to sit on the grease stains for 5-10 minutes. The combination of baking soda, dish soap, and vinegar will break down the grease, making it easier to remove without excessive scrubbing.
