#### 4. **Ammonia (for Heavy Duty Cleaning)**
If your oven glass is covered in stubborn, baked-on grease, ammonia can be a more powerful option. While it should be used cautiously due to its strong smell, it can dissolve grease buildup when used properly.
**Instructions:**
1. **Prepare the Solution**: In a bowl, mix 1/4 cup ammonia with 1 cup of water.
2. **Apply the Solution**: Soak a cloth in the ammonia solution, and carefully wipe down the oven glass. Be sure to wear gloves and ensure good ventilation when working with ammonia.
3. **Let It Sit**: Allow the solution to sit for about 15-20 minutes to break down the grime.
4. **Scrub and Wipe**: After letting it sit, use a sponge to scrub away the buildup. Wipe the glass with a damp cloth to remove any remaining residue.

– **Use Oven Liners**: Using oven liners can help catch drips and spills before they reach the oven glass, reducing the need for frequent cleaning.
– **Regular Maintenance**: Wipe down the glass after each use to keep it from accumulating grease. A quick once-over with a damp cloth can save time in the long run.
– **Self-Cleaning Function**: Many modern ovens have a self-cleaning function that can help burn off grime, but make sure to follow the manufacturer’s instructions for safety.
