How To Clean Years Of Grease Off Kitchen Cabinets

Kitchen cabinets are a magnet for grease and grime, especially if you cook frequently. Over time, this grease can build up and become difficult to remove. But don't worry, with the right cleaning methods, you can restore your kitchen cabinets to their former glory.

Materials you'll need:

Dish soap
Warm water
Baking soda
Vinegar
Cleaning cloths
Scrub brush

Step 1: Remove loose grease

Start by removing any loose grease from the cabinets with a damp cloth. This will help to prevent the grease from spreading.

Step 2: Make a cleaning solution

In a bowl, mix together equal parts dish soap and warm water. Add 1/4 cup of baking soda to the solution and stir until dissolved.

Step 3: Apply the cleaning solution

Using a cleaning cloth, apply the cleaning solution to the cabinets. Allow the solution to sit for 5-10 minutes to allow the baking soda to work its magic.

Step 4: Scrub the cabinets

Use a scrub brush to scrub the cabinets in a circular motion. Be sure to get into all the nooks and crannies.

Step 5: Rinse the cabinets

Use a clean cloth to rinse the cabinets with warm water. Be sure to remove all of the cleaning solution.

Step 6: Dry the cabinets

Use a clean cloth to dry the cabinets. This will help to prevent water spots from forming.

Tips:

If the grease is particularly stubborn, you can make a stronger cleaning solution by adding more baking soda or vinegar.
Be sure to test the cleaning solution on an inconspicuous area first to make sure it doesn't damage the finish of your cabinets.
Clean your kitchen cabinets regularly to prevent grease from building up.

With a little effort, you can remove years of grease from your kitchen cabinets and restore them to their original beauty.
