Small vacuum tube for dust etc and or a bristle bottle brush wet with vinegar and baking soda?
Sweetie, a 20 year old microwave is past it's prime. And I don't mean that is isn't working properly. New technologies and materials have made this hazardous appliance much SAFER than it was even 10 years ago. It is time to start looking for sales and saving up for a replacement. Exposure to microwaves over a period of years isn't a good thing. I use mine sparingly and never stand in front of it when it's on. If it's too much trouble to clean it, get a new one. The doctor bills you save will make it a good investment.
