For Extra Stubborn Stains:
Add a pinch of salt to the paste for extra abrasion, or gently scrape with a plastic scraper after applying the vinegar.
For Oven Racks:
Soak the racks overnight in a bathtub filled with hot water, a few tablespoons of dish soap, and a cup of vinegar. Scrub lightly in the morning and rinse.
Lemon Alternative:
If you prefer natural scents, substitute lemon juice for vinegar. The acidity works similarly, and the fresh smell is a bonus.
