Q & A
Q: What’s the difference between EASY-OFF Heavy Duty and EASY-OFF Fume Free?
A: Heavy Duty is our strongest formula, so it will be the fastest and deliver the best cleaning effect on tough stains. However, it does require rubber gloves and a mask when using. Wait time can be as short as 5 minutes for warm oven cleaning and 20 minutes for cold oven cleaning.
Fume Free is our formula with no harsh fumes. It still delivers the results of EASY-OFF Heavy Duty but requires more wait time (40 minutes for cold oven cleaning vs. 20 minutes when using EASY-OFF Heavy Duty). This product also works on self-cleaning ovens.
Q: Can EASY-OFF Heavy Duty Oven Cleaner be used on continuous or self-cleaning ovens?
A: As indicated on the label directions, we do not recommend using EASY-OFF Heavy Duty Oven Cleaner on these types of ovens. Directions must be followed explicitly. Make sure to use EASY-OFF Fume Free Oven Cleaner in a self-cleaning oven.
Q: How soon can the oven be used after cleaning with EASY-OFF Heavy Duty Oven Cleaner?
A: Immediately, but you might notice some steam or evaporation. Therefore, we recommend that you heat the oven to 300 degrees for 15 minutes before using. It is best to keep pets (especially birds) out of the room until smoke and fumes dissipate.
Q: Can EASY-OFF Heavy Duty Oven Cleaner be used on stovetops?
A: EASY-OFF Heavy Duty Oven Cleaner should not be used on stovetops. The recommended product for stovetops is EASY-OFF Specialty Kitchen Degreaser.
