Can you spray the wire rack in the oven with oven cleaner?

Question

Easy off oven cleaner, 2 hour method. Can you spray the wire rack or should I clean them with brillo or something.

Answer 1

Want to know the best way to clean the racks?????

Fill your bathtub with enough hot water to cover the racks. dissolve a 1/4 to 1/2 cup of Cascade dishwasher powder in the water and add the racks.

Allow it to soak ......time depends on how dirty they are. the crud will wipe right off when they've soaked long enough.

Answer 2

I was looking up tips one day and found one that sounds about right for you.....CLEAN THE GRILL

This cleanup trick works while you sleep! Lay a barbecue grill rack on the lawn overnight-the dew will combine with the enzymes in the grass to loosen any burned-on grease. Try it with messy oven racks too!

Sounds easy enough! I am going to try it if I ever cook enough to mess up my oven racks LOL.

Hope this helps! :)

Yes, You sure can, and it works very well. Just wear gloves and be careful to work without breathing in the fumes. Wipe it out like you would any other part of the oven.

Answer 4

You can but it's not a good idea. It is coated with something so it slides in and out easily. If you use oven cleaner, it won't glide as easily. Maybe just use it on the worst spots. use a Scotch-Brite pad instead of brillo.
