For Tougher Stains: If your oven or stove has burnt-on stains, sprinkle a little bit of salt on top of the paste. The coarser texture can help with scrubbing.
Essential Oils: To add a pleasant fragrance to your cleaning solution, mix a few drops of your favorite essential oil (such as lemon or lavender) with the vinegar.
Alternative Scrubbers: If you don’t have a microfiber cloth, a sponge or soft-bristled brush can work as alternatives.
