Question

A dairy oven was cleaned using a rag with strong cleaning agents, and afterwards, while the rag was still dirty from the dairy oven, the same rag was used to clean a meat oven. Is there any issue of meat and milk (basar vechalav) in this?

Answer

Shalom and blessings 

There is no problem with this. Since even if the rag remained dirty with actual milk, the taste is certainly spoiled by the cleaning agents.
