Cleanup of overspray
I am trying to clean some over spray of an oven. (Not my work.) :-)
As a former chemist, I have tried: 1. Paint thinner 2. TSP 3. Rubbing alcohol 4. Brillo pad (lightly) 5. Ammonia 6. Exorcism :-) Any other ideas ? Andy |

Exorcism :-) Any other ideas ? You've not indicated what the oversprayed substance likely *is*! Also, I assume by "oven" you genuinely *mean* "oven" (i.e., not stovetop, etc.). Do you mean the oven's interior or exterior? My GoTo solvents tend to be: - soapy water (soaking things) - alcohol - mineral spirits - acetone - MEK - xylene - brake fluid etc. The order in which I will try them and the ones that I will "disqualify" varies based on the material that I am trying to remove as well as the "base material" (that, presumably, I would like to protect/preserve, to some degree). [N.B. Many of these are nasty and you should consult the associated MSDS before using] |

Trying to clean the oven, and sprayed some clean area. Warm or hot water, and a scrubby. Might try diluted vinegar, as the oven cleaner is alkalai. - .. Christopher A.

I got a used TV which stank of cigarette film. Bit of Zoom and warm water and a rag, and the nicotine came right off. -- .. Christopher A. Young learn more about Jesus .. www.lds.org .. .. |

I don't even bother to reply to posts when they are this vague. And yet you responded to a follow-up post, saying basically what you probably would have said had you responded to the original post. Interesting. If it's food, SAY SO! (and explain what spilled). Overspray is a term more associated with painting, not an oven spill. Anyone owning an oven should know about Oven Cleaner anyhow. |

If I knew what the over spray was, I would have found a way to remove it. "AS A FORMER CHEMIST", you should understand the need for specificity in questions and statements. You wouldn't say "mix them together" without clearly indicating what "them" indicates, the quantities involved (if not implied) and any other special instructions regarding HOW to combine them -- along with any precautions to be observed in doing so. As I asked: - is it *in* the oven (the oven is the large enclosure into which one would typically place items like TURKEYS to be roasted)? - is it *on* the stovetop (the stovetop is the nominally flat surface on top that one places pots to be heated)? The likely remedies that would be suggested when trying to clean the ENAMELED, self-cleaning interior of the oven are very different from the "glass" cooktops (which self-destruct when a pot boils over and isn't IMMEDIATELY cleaned) which, in turn, are different than the remedies suggested if the oven EXTERIOR had been "dirtied". |

Since you didn't say, we all therefore know that the overspray is inside the oven, on the left side. So, you'd use hot soapy water to remove the oven cleaner over spray. Of course, if you wanted, you might provide some more useful information. Rather than just vague trolling. -- .. Christopher A. Young learn more about Jesus .. www.lds.org .. .. |
