10 Spring Cleaning Tips For Your Kitchen - Cleaning Talk - Professional Cleaning and Restoration Forum

The words "spring cleaning" can make the neatest person cringe. They mean more work. As if cleaning all year long wasn't enough. Spring cleaning is more than just cleaning...it is deep cleaning. Something that most people do not have time for all year long. Since my expertise is cooking, I have decided to focus on spring cleaning and dirt build up prevention tips for the kitchen....

--- Baking soda or club soda will clean and shine stainless steel sinks easily. Simply apply directly to surface and scrub a dub dub.

--- To Remove stubborn water spots from a stainless sink scrub with a cloth dampened with rubbing alcohol or vinegar.

--- To freshen up your "white" porcelain sinks, place paper towels across the bottom of your sink and saturate with bleach. Let sit over night and rinse.

--- After you've cleaned your refrigerator and freezer place an open box of baking soda in the back of each to help absorb odors for about a month.

--- A few drops vanilla extract on a piece of cotton placed in the refrigerator will also help eliminate odors.

--- Wipe refrigerator with vinegar after cleaning to help prevent mildew.

--- Change your refrigerator light bulbs...that way you never have to worry about them burning out during the year.

--- To clean baked-on food from a cooking pan, put a dryer sheet in the pan, fill with water, let sit overnight then sponge clean. The anti-static agents help weaken the bond between the food and the pan and the fabric softeners will soften the baked-on food.

--- To clean burnt or scorched pans, sprinkle pans liberally with baking soda, adding just enough water to moisten. Let stand over night.

--- To get those stubborn stains off of the inside of you microwave; spray liberally with two parts water and one part bleach, heat on high for 20 seconds and let stand for about an hour. The stains should come right off. For really stubborn stains heat for 30 seconds and let sit for 2 - 3 hours.

Thanks for the tips,There's no time like the present to attack the task of thoroughly cleaning your home's kitchen. The time of year really doesn't matter. While spring is the time that many people prefer to tackle this task, you can take care of it any time that it fits into your schedule.nice post

I always open my windows to get the stuffiness of having everything closed up all winter cleared out. I open all closets in the bedrooms and even the linen closet to air everything out. And i absolutly love the Mr. Clean Magic Eraser. It is my favorite cleaning tool...it gets everything!

I use green commercial cleaning products they work well for me and my customer loves them too. If you are cleaning your own home the methods above sure do work I've used some of them myself. I'm into green cleaning that works.

why has no one banned this person yet? CUTE GIRL has nothing to do with the cleaning industry, she just keeps posing spam links. Please remove her from this forum.

More and more folks are realizing the dangers from bring toxic chemical cleaners into their homes. We made the switch to natural cleaning products about three years ago. The house is just as clean and now the air quality is higher

With increased awareness among the consumers, even the professional cleaning providers are switching to green cleaning methods by their standards. Which is a good move indeed.

Hi all,
I use green products for cleaning my house at the regular basis. Generally I hired professional cleaning service for cleaning my home. However, for cleaning my kitchen I use baking soda and detergent powder.
