      I'd add though, be careful if you have older pipes (like I do) and if you decide to dispose of the unused Ammonia solution. I googled and found that I could pour it into the sink as long as I do it slowly and turn the tap on to dilute it, but we ended up getting a small leak under the sink after pouring out the ammonia, which we don't know if it had to do with the solution being too strong.

    Am writing from Nairobi, Kenya and watched your video a few days ago. I had to try your idea. We don't have Dollar Tree here so to get ammonia and large Ziploc bags is not possible. I managed to get ammonia solution from a supplier of lab chemicals at a cost of 1.5 dollars. I had to soak my stove top for 2 nights and a day. I was amazed when all the gung and grime came away. It was so hard like cement and I had totally given up on it. Now its like new. Thanks so much

    I used to clean rental units and houses as a RE Management professional. To clean greasy baked on gunk from stove burners and grids, as well as broilers and oven racks, I always used plain non-sudsy ammonia. Place all removable parts into a black hole-less garbage bag add 1/2 cup to 1 cup ammonia to either a dense sponge or pad of rags and then tie the bag shut. Place outside in the hot sunlight and let this sit for several hours or even overnight.The ammonia fumes do most of the work. Meanwhile clean the rest of the stove! After several hours I would use a pressure attachment on a hose and rinse all the gunk away outside on the lawn. Most times the water would clean the stove parts right down to the metal with no scrubbing whatsoever! Good as new without scrubbing. And ammonia is safe for grass--it adds nitrogen to the soil and acts like fertilizer!

    My mom was doing that back in the 1050’s. works like a champ. I go to dollar tree and buy containers of ammonia water. Have a tub with cover that I fill with ammonia water. soak all items from stove top over night. Do the exact same thing with paper towels and saran wrap for the stove top. As for the oven, get a 9 x 13 glass cake pan put a dish cloth inside and fill half way up with ammonia water. Heat your oven to 350, turn oven off and place cake pan in oven. you will. e surprised as to what you find in the morning. All the mess will be on the floor of the oven. Just wipe out with paper towels. The oven walls, racks and ceiling will be shiny clean.

    Years ago I had a rental property that had a stove that had grease that was caked on and hard. I went to buy new parts and grills that would have cost $100’s. The store owner told me to take the loose parts, 1 cup of ammonia and put it all in a sealed plastic trash bag outside in the sun. When we checked it a few hours later, it all came off! We hosed it off (not near any plants) and they were like new. It seems the fumes were what cleaned it.

    Something that I've found that works almost instantly on grease on the stovetop and surrounding walls, floor, and tiles (and we're talking some years of buildup) is Goo Gone, believe it or not. It's like the loose oil attaches to and breaks down the sticky oil and turns it back into a loose oil. Use it with a Mr. Clean Eraser for maximum effect. However, I definitely learned something from this video and will try the ammonia soak method in the future for the stove grates and the black cooked on stuff.

    I've come across stoves in a few investment rental properties we took on. Being a clean freak myself and budget conscious, I would clean the stove rather than purchase new. I used the same method with fantastic, like new results. Putting all loose pieces that can be removed in gallon zip lock bags with 1/4 cup of ammonia in each bag, then put them all in a large heavy duty trash bag. Leave the bag outside overnight or in a well ventilated room. If the stove is gas, I turn off the gas line (and pilot if there is one), then spray the remainder of the stove with ammonia, cut open a trash bag or two and cover the stove and seal with painters tape. If necessary, protect any flooring or other surfaces around the stove. The next morning, the majority of all the grease and grime wipes or washes away with water. Very minimal scrubbing was needed. However, the fumes are very strong! I wear a ventilated mask and chemical resistant gloves while prepping and cleaning. Actually, the smaller parts that I were placed in bags are opened and rinsed with a hose, then brought inside for a thorough wash in sudsy water. One thing to be careful of is any painted/printed areas. These days most of the indicator markings for the knobs and functioning components can easily rub off with aggressive cleaning products.

    Take all the loose pieces including the oven racks, put them in a black trash bag with a cup of ammonia and leave outside overnight. A professional house cleaner taught me that and it works like a dream! Given the way ammonia worked on your relative's stove top, I bet you could use the trash bag method and it will melt off the grease by the time you are done cleaning the inside and hood, etc.

  • @nicholasfontana5088

    She is not kidding or being overcautious with her warnings about ventilation. Please be VERY careful with that amount of ammonia. You want TONS of ventilation. I was exposed to some in an enclosed space for a few minutes and developed a full blown breathing condition that will not go away. I cannot go anywhere near chemicals of any kind now and am virtually housebound because if it. From someone who wishes they knew exactly how serious it was, please take her warning seriously. Impressive none the less.

      Btw have you tried steam as an alternative to ammonia? You don’t have to take any health precautions since it’s just hot water but it works pretty good too because of the temperature and pressure. It also disinfects very effectively because of it’s sheer temperature and pressure, even a tiny unit or boiling liquid water is hot and powerful enough.
