Hey everyone, I’ve got a chrome oven (Moulinex Optimo OX4848) with some seriously stubborn burnt-on food splatters that just won’t budge. I’ve tried degreaser (KH-7) and scrubber sponge, steel sponge scrubber, and even a sanding block. The sanding block was working, but I heard it might damage the chrome plating, leading to rusting underneath.

The trickiest spots are on the top of the oven, and I’m wondering if it’s safe to turn the oven over to let some steaming water loosen up those burnt spots. What would you all recommend as the best way to thoroughly clean those difficult burnt-on spots without damaging the chrome plating? I want to get it really clean without risking damage to the oven surface itself. Any specific products or techniques you have used that worked well for this?

I’m in Spain, so I’d appreciate recommendations for specific products that I can find in local supermarkets (all the products available in Spanish supermarkets are in soysuper.com).

    I see your oven doesn’t have rubber strips that could be damaged: Heat oven for a couple of minutes. Put a bowl with water and ammonia in the middle of the oven and leave it overnight in a well ventilated room. Next day all that brown stuff will be softened. Opttional you can cover the sides and bottom of the oven with green soap. Next morning everything should come off easily.
