Mr Muscle Oven Cleaner, 300ml (Pack of 1)

Product Information

Close the oven door and leave the product to work. For some Mr Muscle products, the instructions state to leave for no more than 30 minutes, while other products can be left for up to two hours.

It contains sodium etasulfate (a low-foaming anionic surfactant) and caustic soda, so you’ll need to don eye protection and gloves when you use it but on the plus side, it’s odourless and inoffensive to use. Always wear rubber gloves and point the can away from your skin when spraying. Do not inhale the spray or get the product in your eyes. If you get any spray on your skin, rinse with plenty of water for at least 20 minutes, as this can be extremely harmful. Ventilate the fumesRemember to open windows and doors so you won’t breathe in any fumes and always follow the instructions. Cleaners often contain sodium hydroxide (known as lye or caustic soda), which can burn skin, irritate eyes and cause damage to nostrils and lungs, so it’s vital they’re used with care.

Although we use heat in our impeccable oven cleaning process, Mr Muscle can only be used on cold ovens as heat can react with its ingredients. Shake the can well. Spray onto your oven’s interior surfaces from a distance of 20 to 30cm, keeping the can upright at all times. The product is also not suitable for use on chrome, aluminium, zinc, copper, plastic or polished or lacquered surfaces. If in doubt – don’t risk it, as this can cause unsightly corrosion. Spray on internal surfaces including glass door from 20-30 cm. DO NOT SPRAY ONTO OVEN TRIM, PILOT LIGHT OR HEATING ELEMENT.One issue we had with the cleaner is that because it’s a liquid, it dribbled off the sides of our oven shortly after spraying. It was otherwise easy to apply in a few spritzes but the floor of the oven definitely ended up with more coverage. After 45 minutes, it had shifted the large burnt-on patches on the bottom, where the solution seemed to have soaked in well. It’s non-caustic, containing anionic surfactants, non-ionic surfactants and EDTA (a chelating agent) as well as pleasant-smelling limolene to do its work. Despite this, it still advises the use of gloves and eye protection and suggest between 15-60 minutes to do its work. While it doesn’t suggest the use of gloves or eye protection, it does have a warning about chemical burns, so it’s probably best to wear some. No, always follow the instructions on the product you have bought. Mr Muscle is a strong household cleaner and should not be left on for longer than directed. Help! My oven is still dirty! For reasons of hygiene and safety, personal grooming products, cosmetics or items of intimate clothing cannot be returned.
