Preparation: Find a container large enough to fully immerse your oven hood filter. This could be a large pot, a basin, or even a bathtub, depending on the size of your filter.
Boiling Water: Fill the container with boiling water. The hot water will help to soften and break down the grease, making it easier for the OxiClean to do its job.
Add OxiClean: Measure and add approximately one cup of OxiClean to the hot water. Stir the solution to ensure the OxiClean is fully dissolved. OxiClean is a versatile stain remover that works wonders on grease and grime, making it an ideal choice for this task.
Soak the Filter: Carefully submerge your oven hood filter in the solution. Ensure that it’s completely covered by the water.
Wait: Allow the filter to soak for 10-30 minutes, depending on how greasy it is. The more buildup, the longer it should soak to ensure the solution has time to penetrate and loosen the grime.
Rinse and Dry: After soaking, remove the filter from the solution and rinse it thoroughly under running water. Shake off any excess water and let it air dry completely before reinstalling it in your hood.
