We just bought a house and I discovered the underside of the exhaust fan is virtually crusted with grease. UGH!
What can I use to cut that old, multi-layered grease?
It is so gross, I almost want to just remove the thing and replace it, but my thrifty side won't let me. Battling with that side is the side that just wants to throw up thinking about that gross thing. I am conflicted.
Advice on the best grease cutters would help my mental health.

I have the same problem as Grandma Nancy. The house had been professionally cleaned, paid by the seller, and that was the only place that had nasty grimy grease. I was thinking the same thing - Blue Dawn dish soap and a brush. Hopefully, I can get it off the top of the microwave. Hmmmm.

The grease was so thick in the kitchen of a house my folks bought many decades ago that my mother ended up needing to use kerosene to cut the grease on the cabinets and fixtures! Not sure I'd go that route. I find Softscrub does a good job with grease generally. Use a rag vs a sponge though. Rinsing that stuff is painful from a sponge. Rag is much better.
