Default Cleaning Oven

Do any of you guys ever clean your ovens? I have been using mine for over 2 years and haven't cleaned it once. I recently noticed that there are specs of powder baked on the sides of the oven. I am fine with that, what bothers me is the powder that is baked on the glass. It is getting to the point where I am having a hard time seeing inside. Does anybody know of a cleaner that will get rid of the powder without scratching the glass?

My suggestion would be to use some good soapy water (dish detergent will do fine) and a razor blade. Just don't get carried away with it and you shouldn't scratch the glass.

The razor blade is what I used on glass doing paint & body.

Captain, to eliminate dirt and specs I just blew out the oven before warming it up from time to time with an air hose. As for the old powder that is stuck in the oven, who cares, if it's stuck then it isn't airborn and thus not a problem.
As for the window, buy a glass buffing kit and I think you'll be very pleased.
