De-greaser for cabinets

I need recs for a heavy duty de-greaser for some cabinets that look like they've never been wiped down before. They are mainly for around the stove area. The cabinets are sticky with grease/reside that won't wash easily off your hands. TIA.

Re: De-greaser for cabinets

  • Not working :( I even added vinegar to the mix. I tried it the green way but I'm willing to use chemicals (even though I've been doing the green thing for a while).

  • Zep Orange Degreaser(or Home Depot brand/Lowes brand)----from Home Depot or Lowes...They sell it this huge jug...

    Also Sams sells a degreaser too---it big just size. 

    I always keep in on hand..and clean the stove and cabinets with it....It works great and smells lovely.

    I keep a spray bottle with the degreaser under my kitchen sink for anything greasy,,,,whether its the stove top or cabinets or a greasy pot

  • I love Krud Kutter, I got it at Home Depot but I'm sure it can be found elsewhere as well.  When we moved into our house, I was pretty sure nothing had been cleaned in years, and the cabinets perhaps never.  I went through a couple bottles of that stuff and it was insane what it removed.  It seriously made me a little nauseous seeing all that grime come off, the thought of how dirty the house actually was. 
  • Baking Soda did wonders for my kitchen cabinets.  The previous owner was a slob and our cabinets looked completely differentonce I was done, they actually looked brand new once.  Just use it as an abrasive with your hands to rub in, do not use a sponge with a scrubber it will remove your finish.  You will see the grease fall right off. 
  • Lemon Oil. I use Halloway House. 

    The concept is like disolves like.  Wipe the surface with the oil, let soak and wipe off. Works like a charm and will not harm the wood.

  • Hot soapy water mixed with googone. Works like a charm!
