How can I remove kitchen grease from wooden kitchen cabinets without damaging the wood?

Answer 1

Best Answer - Chosen by Asker

Use baking soda for a more environmentally friendly alternative or a mild detergent, such as that you would use to wash your dishes, to cut through grease. You can also try cleaning kitchen cabinet doors by combining a half cup borax, two tablespoons laudry detergent soap flakes, one tablespoon ammonia, and one gallon of warm water. Use full strength in spray bottle or add two cups to a pail of warm water. If any stickiness remains, try using baking soda as a scrub agent. Apply it directly to the area - it should remove any residue without harming the finish.

I was very surprised to find out how quick and easy it was to cut through grease build up on appliances such as stove tops, vent-a-hood, refrigerators, and wooden kitchen cabinets and vinyl flooring by using Spray N Wash straight from the can. I sprayed it on and let it set a few seconds then took a damp sponge and the surfaces were squeaky clean. Inexpensive product and not harsh on the surfaces. Give it a try - you won't even have to use much elbow grease to remove the grease build up with spray n wash.

Hope this was helpful ~~

sugar soap cuts though all kinds of Greece and grimegive it a go and its not harsh chemicals to do any damage

Answer 11

Murphys oil soap sold in grocery stores will do the job for you

Answer 12

scrape the wood down and use the same finish as on other parts

Answer 13

Murphy oil soap works, but can leave cabinet sticky. I would be careful using pine oil depending on finish. It can remove paint. I have used a sun and earth cleaner, but remove it promptly as the citrus oil can lift some less expensive finishes. I have used plain dish water soap and clean water lightly to remove grease film and tested the finish in a area not seen easily to know if it was okay. If you have real wood, you will be able to clean them easily. Fiberboard hates moisture at all.
