Abstract
A non-caustic oven cleaner comprising a terpene is provided. The terpene is most preferably d-limonene. The oven cleaner further comprises effective amounts of a cleaning surfactant, a foaming agent, a stabilizer, a wetting agent and a viscosity agent. Said oven cleaner is produced by separately pre-mixing the oil phase components and the water phase components and then mixing the oil phase into the water phase. A method for safely cleaning oven residue is provided, comprising heating the oven, contacting the oven cleaner to the interior surfaces of the oven for a specified amount of time, and further rinsing said oven cleaner from the interior surfaces of the oven.
