CleenU product solution
Oven Cleaner & Degreaser
Clinging gel · Dissolves carbonized grease · Private label
Flaking black carbon on the oven floor and walls? In a cold oven, spray the gel, close the door for 15–30 minutes, scrape with a plastic scraper, and wipe repeatedly down to the enamel. The gel clings; private label from 500 bottles.
- Fat heated over and over at oven temperatures first oxidizes and polymerizes into a tacky film, then partially carbonizes into a hard, black, glossy crust fused to the enamel. At that point it isn’t really grease anymore, and ordinary degreasers only reach the surface. This strongly alkaline system re-saponifies and breaks down the polymerized fat and loosens the bond between the carbon layer and the enamel, so after enough time the crust turns into a soft sludge you can scrape away.
- Oven interiors have sides and a roof, and liquids run to the floor fast. The gel stays on vertical surfaces and keeps working for 30 minutes or more. Always start with a cold oven and close the door to let it work; heavy buildup can go to an hour. After scraping, wipe several times with a damp cloth and clean water to remove all alkaline residue so there’s no smell the next time you heat it.

Before & after
Before and after (use illustration)
Before: the floor and back wall are covered in black carbonized grease, flaking where it’s thick, with brown spots on the sides. After: gel on a cold oven for 30 minutes, a plastic scraper, and repeated damp-cloth wipes leave the floor and walls showing their original dark enamel with no crust left.
- Before: black carbon so thick on the floor and back wall it flakes
- After: the original dark enamel with no crust left
- The gel clings to side walls and the ceiling
How it works
How Carbonized Grease Softens
Oven black is a network of oxidized, polymerized triglycerides with partly carbonized products. Strong alkali such as sodium or potassium hydroxide keeps saponifying the ester bonds in that network at high pH, cutting it into soluble fatty-acid salts. The solution also soaks into the carbon layer so it swells and weakens, and breaks down residual fat at the interface with the enamel so the crust loosens. A thickener forms the gel that keeps the solution wet and reacting on vertical surfaces, and surfactants aid wetting and penetration. A plastic scraper removes it, and repeated water wipes clear the alkaline residue.
- Strong alkali saponifies polymerized fat
- Swells carbon layer
- Loosens the bond
- Gel keeps it wet and working
- Scrape and wipe with water
Usage guidance
Use guidance
- Make sure the oven is cold and switched off; remove racks and trays to treat separately; wear alkali-resistant gloves and goggles and open a window.
- Spray evenly from 20 cm onto grease on the interior, racks, and trays, avoiding elements, the fan, the temperature probe, and the door seal; close the door for 15 to 30 minutes, up to an hour for heavy buildup.
- Scrape off the softened grime with a plastic scraper, wipe with a damp cloth and clean water at least three times until nothing feels slippery, then heat the empty oven at 200°C for 10 minutes to clear any smell.

Where Oven Cleaner & Degreaser stands out
Oven Black Is Grease That Has Been Cooked
Fat heated over and over at oven temperatures first oxidizes and polymerizes into a tacky film, then partially carbonizes into a hard, black, glossy crust fused to the enamel. At that point it isn’t really grease anymore, and ordinary degreasers only reach the surface. This strongly alkaline system re-saponifies and breaks down the polymerized fat and loosens the bond between the carbon layer and the enamel, so after enough time the crust turns into a soft sludge you can scrape away.
Gel That Clings, Enough Time, and a Thorough Water Wipe
Oven interiors have sides and a roof, and liquids run to the floor fast. The gel stays on vertical surfaces and keeps working for 30 minutes or more. Always start with a cold oven and close the door to let it work; heavy buildup can go to an hour. After scraping, wipe several times with a damp cloth and clean water to remove all alkaline residue so there’s no smell the next time you heat it.

Frequently asked questions (FAQ)
Find practical answers about Oven Cleaner & Degreaser, private label, samples, MOQ, documents, and delivery.
How to use
Will it remove black, baked-on crust?
Yes. Gel a cold oven for 30 minutes, up to an hour for thick crust, and it softens so a plastic scraper lifts it; then wipe with water.
Why must the oven be cold?
Heat dries the gel so it stops working, creates irritating vapor, and risks burns. Always start cold.
Can I use it in a self-cleaning oven?
Not on catalytic liners (the rough, absorbent panels); it damages them. For pyrolytic ovens, use the self-clean cycle per the manual, and use this only on plain enamel.
Do you need a mask with oven cleaner?
Yes, wear one. This is a strongly alkaline gel and spraying creates fine droplets, so wear a mask, rubber gloves, and eye protection, and open a window or run the range hood. Spray only inside a cold oven, never toward your face, and close the door while it works.
Surfaces and common questions
How do I clean the racks?
Take them out, lay them on a trash bag or newspaper, coat with gel, seal them in the bag for an hour, then scrub and rinse.
Can I use it on aluminum trays?
No; strong alkali corrodes aluminum. Soak aluminum and non-stick trays in a neutral cleaner.
Will the oven smell afterward?
It’s unscented; wipe with water at least three times, then heat the empty oven for 10 minutes, and nothing carries over to food.
There’s a white residue in the oven after wiping.
That’s leftover alkaline product. Wipe several more times with a clean damp cloth until nothing feels slippery, and wipe once more before heating so no residue bakes on.
Can I use it on the inside of the oven door glass?
Yes—avoid the gasket. Let it dwell, scrape at a low angle, and polish. For glass-only jobs, an oven glass cleaner is handier.
How often should I deep-clean the oven?
Every 1–3 months for home use, depending on how often you bake. Wipe up spills once the oven cools after each use so carbon doesn’t keep building.
Do baking soda and vinegar really clean ovens?
Only light grease and fresh spills. A baking soda paste left overnight softens a thin film; mixed with vinegar, the two mostly neutralize each other, so you get fizz but little cleaning. For black, baked-on carbon on the oven floor and back wall, a strongly alkaline gel left 15–30 minutes in a cold oven scrapes off far faster.
Can I use oven cleaner as an everyday degreaser?
No. Oven cleaner is strongly alkaline and made for carbonized, baked-on grease; on counters, painted appliance panels, or aluminum it can whiten, discolor, or corrode the surface. For everyday grease on the stovetop, range hood, and backsplash, use a kitchen degreaser.
Buying and private label
What should we decide first for a private-label oven cleaner & degreaser?
Three things: gel trigger or aerosol (aerosol foam is thicker and clings better), your market’s warning-label and child-resistant packaging rules for strong alkalis, and whether to bundle with the oven glass cleaner as a deep-clean kit. Oven cleaner is a mature, high-volume item in Western kitchens.
What are the sample, MOQ, and lead-time terms?
Free samples are usually ready in 3–5 days. Standard MOQ is 500 bottles, and bulk orders are scheduled after packaging and labels are approved.
What can be customized?
All of it: formula direction, scent, fill size (500 mL spray, 1 L refill, and more), mist or foam trigger, label design and language, and ecommerce bundles with the oven glass cleaner, a scraper, and gloves.
Can we test samples first?
Yes, we ship samples first. Test them on enamel oven panels and chrome racks with carbonized grease like the ones your customers handle, and record carbonized grease softening time, cling time, and residue after water wipes. That tells you more than a before-and-after photo.
Which documents can you provide?
We provide SDS/MSDS, a TDS, and batch COAs, plus bilingual label content for your target market. They aren’t posted publicly; we send them per project on inquiry.
How is private-label pricing quoted?
Pricing is tiered by packaging, trigger or cap, label, and order quantity, starting at the 500-bottle MOQ. Send your target quantity, fill size, and packaging needs, and we’ll quote unit prices by volume tier with sample and lead-time details.
