'Cream cleaner' and a damp J-cloth works fine too. It looks like the grime is welded on, but it's stunning how easily it comes away after all that incandescent baking. And then you can see the flames again.

I mention it now for no other reason than it amazes me every time I use them. I got the tip from cwdf and I forget which member, sorry, but it it is such a good tip its worth repeating. Baked on soot deposits wipe clean with one wipe, no scrubbing, no scratching. Goodness knows how it works so well or why these wipes dont harm baby bottoms but it is astounding. Well, it pleases me anyway. Experienced baby wipe using grandfather speaks- They do have a small amount of moisturiser in them, I guess that softens the deposits to allow easy removal.

I bought some special stove brillo pad things from the chandler, but soon found out that if you leave them in the sink after use they dissolve and you end up with a sink full of rusty water..

Excellent for keeping Leather steering wheels in A1 condition - if they are good enough for a babies arse they wont harm a bit of stitched dead cow skin.

Top tip - and here's another - just remember not to flush them down the loo after use.

A bit of newspaper, spit and ash, cheap as chips! A dry brillo pad works great too, can be used on hot glass, just mind your fingers!

HaHa, yes, Walsden, the shittiest place on the cut. Grandma Pollard's still cook chips with lard, not veg oil, several veggies I know get upset and won't eat from there.

Obviously, I'm to posh to Spit Instead I simply dampen some newsprint (using water from galley sink), dabble in some ash from the bottom of the stove wipe over inside of stove door - presto clean glass & best of all it's FREE

I occasionally clean my stove glass with oven cleaner but it's a bit of a fool's errand because within thirty minutes of lighting a fire it's as black as a penguin's armpit again. It never becomes totally transparent though because it's got that white acid etching in it, and I just know that if I tried to change the glass, all of the bolts would shear off.

Obviously if you are posh your spit will be pink and smell of Vin de Bordeaux. Steady now.
