oven cleaner

Baked-on grime remover

Oven cleaner is a caustic chemical product designed to dissolve baked-on grease and food residue inside ovens.

The active ingredients—typically sodium hydroxide or other strong alkalis—break down carbonized deposits that ordinary soap can't remove.

I left the oven cleaner on for twenty minutes before wiping it down.

The fumes are harsh, requiring ventilation during use.
