Cleaning a glass stovetop isn’t hard—but a lot of people accidentally scratch it or leave streaks. Here’s the fast, safe way to get it spotless and shiny:
✨ The Right Way to Clean a Glass Stove Top
🧾 What You’ll Need
- Soft cloth or microfiber towel
- Dish soap
- Baking soda
- White vinegar (optional)
- A non-scratch sponge
- Optional: razor scraper (for stubborn burnt spots)
👩🍳 Step-by-Step Method
1. 🧊 Let it cool completely
- Never clean a hot surface—it can cause burns and streaking
2. 🧼 Wipe off loose debris
- Use a dry or slightly damp cloth to remove crumbs and grease
3. 🫧 Apply soap + baking soda
- Sprinkle a thin layer of baking soda over the surface
- Add a few drops of dish soap or a damp cloth on top
4. 🧽 Gently scrub
- Use a soft sponge or cloth
- Work in circles—don’t press too hard to avoid scratches
5. 🧴 Use vinegar for shine
- Lightly spray or wipe with vinegar
- This removes residue and leaves a streak-free finish
6. 🔪 Tackle stubborn burnt spots (if needed)
- Use a flat razor scraper at a low angle
- Gently lift stuck-on food—don’t dig or press too hard
7. ✨ Final wipe
- Buff with a clean microfiber cloth until shiny
⚠️ Common Mistakes to Avoid
- ❌ Using steel wool or abrasive pads
- ❌ Cleaning while hot
- ❌ Using too much water (causes streaks)
- ❌ Scraping at a steep angle (can scratch glass)
💡 Quick Daily Hack
- Wipe with a damp microfiber cloth after each use—prevents buildup and keeps it looking new
