Question. San Diego, CA - Professor, a secretary in our office offered to clean the oven in our break room. (We have a full range in addition to the microwave.) She wanted to make some extra cash to buy a new piano. The poor women went out and bought some kind of oven cleaner and started scrubbing the oven with a rag and this cleaner. Her hands started to disintegrate! They turned red and started to burn her. What did she do wrong?
Answer. Excellent question for The Clueless Cleaner. Probably what she did wrong was trying to clean the office oven in the first place without cleaning knowledge and experience. Better leave that job to your janitorial service. The experts say that many oven cleaners contain lye, which is a powerful alkaline which can dissolve greasy buildups. That lye started burning her hands. If she insists on doing the job with that cleaner she should be wearing protective gear, at the very minimum rubber gloves and probably eye protection and more.

It’s a sad thing to be clueless. Even while The Clueless Cleaner believes that cleaning can be fun and hopes to provide a bit of entertainment, Professor Q hopes that his research might point some folks in the right direction in terms of solving perplexing cleaning issues.
Here’s what you need to know. Other than being fictitious, Professor Q is just like you and me: Fallible! He knows nothing about cleaning! Out of the goodness of his heart he’ll look it up when someone has a truly clueless inquiry. He has dozens of reference books and of course the Internet. But he has not checked out these solutions personally and as far as he knows the experts he researches might be just as clueless as the rest of us. Probably not, but who knows?
So do your own due diligence before proceeding with any cleaning solution. Just one more slight word of caution. The Professor has noticed that a lot of these cleaning experts say the same thing over and over again, doubtlessly to cover their own tails. They say, “any one trying a cleaning solution should test it in an inconspicuous place–whether you are cleaning your silk blouse, your carpet or your driveway. Find an out of the way spot to make sure the cleaning solution doesn’t cause more problems than it cures.”
