Ensure the Stove Top is Cool
First and foremost, make sure your stove top is completely cool before starting the cleaning process. This prevents streaks and ensures safety.
Remove Loose Debris
Wipe the stove top with a dry microfiber cloth to remove any loose debris or crumbs.
Spray Vinegar
Fill a spray bottle with white vinegar and generously spritz the entire surface of the stove top. Vinegar is a natural degreaser and helps break down any greasy residue.
Sprinkle Baking Soda
Lightly sprinkle baking soda over the vinegar-coated surface. Baking soda is a gentle abrasive that will help lift off any burnt-on food particles without scratching the glass.
Let it Sit
Allow the vinegar and baking soda mixture to sit for about 15 minutes. During this time, the two ingredients will work together to soften and lift stubborn stains.
Wipe Clean
After 15 minutes, use a damp microfiber cloth or soft sponge to gently wipe away the baking soda and vinegar mixture. The stains should come off easily, leaving your stove top clean and streak-free.
Use a Razor Blade Scraper for Stubborn Stains (Optional)
If you encounter any particularly stubborn spots that didn’t come off with the baking soda and vinegar, carefully use a razor blade scraper at a low angle to gently lift the residue. Make sure to keep the blade flat against the glass to avoid scratching.
Final Wipe
Once all stains are removed, do a final wipe-down with a clean, damp cloth to remove any remaining residue, then dry with a dry microfiber cloth.
