Take a spray bottle and fill it with equal parts white vinegar and spring. Shake the contents gently and apply to the outside of the glass. Finally, wipe off the cleaner with a paper kitchen towel. Done!
Dirt build-up
Repeat the same procedure on the inside of the oven door. This part tends to be more dirty because it is in close contact with the food being baked. Expect that the first cleaning is not enough and you will have to repeat it.

It is possible that the first dose of purity will not have the right effect, so repeat the entire anabasis several times.
Hanger trick
Once you have the outside and inside of the door clean, you need to deal with the inside space between the two glasses. How to do it: Turn on the oven. Remove the bottom drawer under the appliance and give it a good vacuum, as this area collects the most dust.
Then wrap the wire hanger with kitchen paper towels and secure with a rubber band. Finally, apply the mixture of vinegar and dish soap that you prepared in the sprayer to this cleaning tool.
Effortless cleaning
Push the wrapped hanger through the lower part of the door, which is freely accessible. Rub the hanger against the glass and be patient. The dirt dissolves slowly but surely. In no time you’ll have your cleaning tool full of brown residue. Continue cleaning until the dirt has dissolved and the glass is clean and shiny.
Pay attention to the type of oven
A free opening in the lower part of the door is only found in new types of appliances. Therefore, if you have an older oven at home, you will have to proceed in the classic way – by unscrewing and disassembling the door. But luckily cleaning is a once in a while thing, so it’s survivable.
