How to wash a kitchen set from grease

During operation, fat may appear in the kitchen. It is difficult to clean with ordinary water and a rag. Means to fight fat come to the rescue. You can either buy them in a store or make them yourself.

Ways to wash a kitchen set from grease

There are 2 ways to clean your headset:

1. Using household chemicals. The advantage of this method is that the composition of the purchased detergent contains special components to combat fat. In addition, there is a wide variety of such products (it all depends on the surfaces for which they can be used). For example, metal ovens can be cleaned with a cleaning powder, and sprays are more suitable for varnished surfaces. The disadvantages of such tools are that they are made on a chemical basis (there is a risk of harm to health). In addition, they must always be bought.
2. Folk remedies. Their effectiveness is less, because the action of the components is not aimed at eliminating fat. But at the same time, they are safe for people and surfaces. In addition, a folk remedy can be made from improvised means, saving money.

Detergents

Detergent and detergent can be used to remove greasy stains. It is impossible to say which manufacturer is the best. Composition should be selected depending on the budget. But in most cases, the active components are the same in different substances.

When choosing household chemicals, you need to pay attention to:

1. Powder can damage the varnish and glossy surface. Detergents, aerosols and sprays will be good substitutes.
2. Household chemicals corrode fat without using a sponge. It is enough to apply the mixture to greasy areas. Then remove the mixture and fat with a rag or washcloth.
3. Household chemicals are not able to remove greasy stains on some surfaces the first time. These include: oven, range hood, stove and any metal surface. To effectively remove fat, you need to apply detergent 2-3 times.
4. When buying detergents, you need to read the composition. In most cases, it indicates for which surfaces the mixture is suitable or not. If you bought the product, but do not know if it can cleanse the fat without harming the material, you can do the test on another surface.

Folk remedies

Among folk remedies, the following can be distinguished:

1. Paper towels. Ideal for removing fresh oily stains. Towels will not harm the kitchen set. In this case, fat is removed instantly. The towel should be wetted with warm water and wipe the area with a stain. Once the towel is dirty, it is advisable to take another.
2. A mixture of soda and soap. This option is suitable for dishes and household appliances. To prepare the mashi you need: grind a bar of soap into small pieces, and pour a little water. Apply a soap solution to a washcloth and rub. Now clean the same place with soda applied on a washcloth. Wait 30 minutes. Wash the surface with a damp cloth.
3. Hydrogen peroxide. A good remedy for the fight against oily spots. The substance can be bought at any pharmacy. It should be used as follows: peroxide is mixed with soda. A thick mixture should be formed, a bit like sour cream. Apply it to a greasy stain with a sponge. We are waiting for about 30 minutes. If fat has been eaten, it must move away and it can be removed with a brush. Wipe the surface with a wet rag. The effectiveness of using a sponge is that small pieces can be cut from it, which will be effective for removing small spots.
4. Melamine sponge. This sponge is made of hard material. It effectively eliminates fat without leaving streaks. But it can not be used for some types of material. The process of use is as follows: the sponge should be moistened with water and squeezed. Use it to remove fat. Small grains of this sponge could remain on the surface. We remove them with a cloth.
5. Steam cleaner. This is a very effective method that can be used on almost all kitchen sets. The exceptions are those that cannot be wetted with water. The advantage of the steam cleaner is that it will not only remove grease, but also make the surface disinfected. This will remove dangerous germs and bacteria. The process of removing fat is very simple: turn on the steam cleaner. Apply steam to dirty places. Wipe the water with a paper towel.
6. To increase the efficiency of fat removal, you can combine several of the above methods.

Note! Hydrogen peroxide cannot be used on glossy and varnish coatings, as it will damage the material.

How to remove stubborn fat from the kitchen

If the grease has been on the surface for a long enough time and has already eaten, cleaning powders are best. But they are not suitable for all surfaces (they can leave scratches). For such surfaces there are special environmental substances. They are based on natural and mineral components. They are safe for people, environments, surfaces, and effectively eliminate stains.

Note! The use of acid or ammonia agents is not recommended. They effectively remove fat, but harm most types of material. It is better to buy chemicals with a gentle effect (for example, aerosol or spray).

Remove stubborn fat harder than fresh spots. It will take more time. In such cases, it is better to apply the solution to an oily place several times. Wait a while with each application. And then remove the substance with a rag. You may need to apply the product up to 5 times.

Preventive actions

In the process of removing fat, no matter what method was chosen, safety measures should be remembered. So that cleaning products do not harm health, it is necessary to ventilate the room every time after cleaning. Glossy, glass or lacquered surfaces must not be cleaned with powder. It will scratch the surface or make it matte. Also do not forget about precautions. Be sure to wear gloves, and apply the mixture with a washcloth or rag. It is also advisable to protect the face and respiratory tract (a gauze bandage will do). All funds must be stored in places where children or animals cannot get. Observing all these rules, you can effectively clean surfaces without harming the environment.
