How to Remove Dirt and Grease from Wooden Kitchen Cabinets Effortlessly

Step 1: Remove Items from Cabinets

Clear the Cabinets:

Begin by removing all items from your cabinets. This includes dishes, pots, pans, and any other stored items. Clearing the space ensures you can reach all surfaces and prevents any damage to your belongings during the cleaning process.

Step 2: Create a Soapy Cleaning Solution

Mix Soap and Water:

In a bowl or bucket, mix a few drops of dish soap or castile soap with warm water. This mild cleaning solution is effective at cutting through grease without damaging the wood finish.

Step 3: Wipe Down Surfaces

Clean the Cabinets:

Dip a microfiber cloth or sponge into the soapy water, then wring out the excess liquid. Gently wipe down all cabinet surfaces, focusing on areas with visible dirt and grease.

Use a light touch to avoid scratching the wood. Pay special attention to corners, edges, and handles where grease and grime tend to accumulate.

Step 4: Tackle Stubborn Stains with Baking Soda

Apply Baking Soda Paste:

For stubborn stains, create a paste using baking soda and a small amount of water.

Apply the paste to the stained area and let it sit for a few minutes.

Use a soft cloth or sponge to gently scrub the stain. Baking soda is a natural abrasive that can help lift tough grime without damaging the wood.
