How to Clean White Kitchen Cabinets

Many of you know I have been working to update my home’s kitchen. My biggest kitchen project so far has been painting my kitchen’s oak cabinets white. I am only about halfway done, but I am loving how my “new” painted white oak cabinets look!

There are fixes I’d love for the kitchen — like adding a tile backsplash, updating the floors, replacing the countertops and installing a beautiful farmhouse sink.

So I’m excited to share with you today the $20,000 Scotch-Brite™ Scrubstakes — the winner will win $20,000 to put toward a kitchen makeover! I would love to win $20,000 for my kitchen, and I think you should enter, too! When you enter the contest, you choose a team: #TeamSponge or #TeamDishCloth.

I’m picking #TeamDishCloth! I started painting my kitchen cabinets about a month ago. The project has been going slowly, since I’m painting very carefully to avoid drips. I’m only painting a few minutes here and there when I have the time. 

After all this work, I want to keep the cabinets clean! I scrubbed the cabinets the best I could before painting the cabinets. While cleaning, I discovered grease on some cabinets, especially on those above the stove. 

So, I’ve been cleaning the cabinets regularly with just a bit of soapy water (I use a drop of Palmolive) and a Scotch-Brite® Scrubbing Dish Cloth.

Scotch-Brite Dish Scrubbing Dish Cloths are perfect for cleaning my new white kitchen cabinets because they are strong, and the cloths’ scrubbing dots will not scratch the surface. I don’t want to ruin the finish on my newly painted cabinets! If I clean the cabinets with my Scotch-Brite Scrubbing Dish Cloths regularly, just the cloths and some soapy water are all I need.

I keep my Scotch-Brite Dish Scrubbing Dish Cloths on the counter in a cute labeled basket. (A friend gave me these mini clothespin chalkboard labels. I just label them with a chalkboard pen.) After using a cloth — whether it’s for cleaning my new white kitchen cabinets or the dishes — I just toss it in the washing machine. I like that I don’t have wet dish cloths in the kitchen.

My Scotch-Brite Scrubbing Dish Cloths are just as great as scrubbing pots and pans as they are at keeping my kitchen cabinets and counters clean.

The Scotch-Brite Scrubbing Dish Cloth 2-packs come in coral, navy, mint and gray — I like how the navy and the coral look against my cabinets. (Not to mention that the navy matches my eyeglasses.)

    I love the idea of painting your kitchen’s oak cabinets white. They look amazing!!! A tile backsplash sounds like a great addition. I’ve used these scrubbing dish cloths, they work super well.

    That little bin you keep the towels in is so cute and perfect! I need to organize my towels better in the kitchen like you have. And, I’m still in love with those white cabinets!!!
