• Water
• Spray bottle or cloth

Steps:

1. Remove loose debris
   Take out racks and brush or wipe away crumbs.
2. Make a baking soda paste
   Mix ½ cup baking soda with a few tablespoons of water until spreadable.
3. Apply the paste inside the oven
   Spread on the bottom, sides, and back (avoid heating elements). Let it sit overnight or at least 6–8 hours.
4. Spray vinegar
   Lightly mist white vinegar over the baking soda. It will fizz, helping lift grease and grime.
5. Wipe clean
   Use a damp cloth or sponge to remove the paste and dirt. Repeat for stubborn spots if needed.
6. Clean oven racks
   Soak racks in hot, soapy water, scrub lightly, rinse, and dry.
7. Replace everything
   Return racks and enjoy a sparkling oven!
