This is news to me!

For more effective cleaning, consider using a degreasing agent specifically designed for kitchen use. Products like dish soap, which is formulated to cut through grease, can be very effective. Alternatively, a homemade solution of vinegar and baking soda can work wonders. Vinegar acts as a natural degreaser, while baking soda provides gentle abrasion to lift stubborn grime. Commercial degreasers are also available and can be highly effective, but always ensure they are safe for the surfaces you are cleaning.

1. Gather your supplies: a degreasing agent (dish soap, vinegar, or a commercial product), a scrub brush or sponge, microfiber cloths, and a step ladder for easy access.

2. Remove any items stored on top of the cabinets.

3. Apply the degreasing solution to the greasy areas. If using dish soap, mix a few drops with warm water. For vinegar, use a 1:1 ratio with water.

4. Let the solution sit for a few minutes to break down the grease.

5. Scrub the surfaces gently with a brush or sponge.

6. Wipe away the loosened grime with a damp microfiber cloth.

7. Rinse the cloth frequently and repeat the process as necessary.

8. Dry the surfaces with a clean cloth to prevent water spots.
