Tips on How to Clean Oven Mitts

Oven gloves are designed as a protective gear. In order to protect the hands, the manufacturers of the gloves, use durable as well as protective nylon or silicon along with gentle and soft fabrics, such as, cotton and terry cloth and so on. Keeping these gloves clean can be really problematic. There are times when the gloves can easily get stains while holding the bowl of food. Apart from the food items, vapour, grease, oil can also soil the gloves. If you do not want its colour to fade away, it’s better to be washed by bare hands with gentle fabric softener.

Things You Need For Cleaning Mitts

There are a couple of things which one needs for washing gloves, such as, measuring cups, a large size plastic bowl, fabric softener or some gentle detergent, pieces of white rags, pins for the clothes, other utensils.

Steps You Need To Follow

• First, you need to look out for some instructions. In general, the product has the label attached to its body, with the instruction printed on it. You need to follow these directions very closely. If the instruction demands it to be washed by hands, you have to do that very carefully.

• After pouring half cup of detergent into the bowl of hot water, mix it properly and soak a piece of white rag into it. After that, ring it properly. After this, try to clean the rigid parts of the oven mitt by dabbing the rag on the dirty parts. Use the other wash cloth to clean the detergent, applied earlier. After all these, keep the gloves away for 30 minutes at least, in order to check whether the colour is fading away or not.

• Mix warm water and detergent in another bowl and dip the dirty mitt along with the rag pieces and let those soak for another 30 minutes. After 30 minutes, wring the aga oven gloves gently.

It is important to rinse the gloves properly, under cold water, in order to get the soap away from it. It is better to hang the mitt in the laundry room with the help of a cloth pin. For the sake of good air circulation, use a plastic utensil and insert it on the inside. It is better to let it dry for one full day, in the broad sunlight.

Things You To Be Careful About

It is important to avoid clothes containing bleaching agents and it is always best to contact the customer care support of the company from where you get the fabric of your oven gloves.
