Essential Cleaning Supplies You Will Need
To tackle the sticky residue on your cabinets, you’ll need a few essential supplies: a mild detergent or mild degreaser, white vinegar, baking soda, warm water, microfiber cloths, sponges, a soft-bristle brush, and optional cleaning gloves. For tougher grease, consider having some natural or commercial degreasing products on hand.
Preparing the Kitchen and Cabinets for Cleaning
Before you begin the cleaning process, empty the cabinets entirely to have unobstructed access. Remove any hardware like handles if possible, and cover the floors and countertops to protect them from spills or dripping water. Open the windows for ventilation if using strong cleaning solutions. Having an organized setup will make cleaning significantly easier.

3. For stubborn spots, create a paste with baking soda and water, and gently scrub using a soft-bristle brush.
4. Rinse the cloth often and repeat the process until all grease is removed.
5. Finish by wiping a clean, damp cloth over the surfaces to remove any residue, and dry thoroughly with another cloth.
