How to Keep Your Glass-Ceramic Cooktop Sparkling Like New

Deep Cleaning for Stubborn Stains

For cooked-on spills or marks that won’t budge, try this simple, natural method.

You’ll need:

  • Baking soda
  • Hot water
  • A soft towel
  • A non-abrasive sponge

Steps:

  1. Sprinkle baking soda directly onto the stained area.
  2. Soak the towel in hot water, wring it out, and lay it over the stain. Leave for 15 minutes.
  3. Gently scrub the area with a non-abrasive sponge.
  4. Wipe clean with a damp cloth and dry with a microfiber towel.

This gentle method removes residue effectively while keeping your cooktop safe and shiny.

For Burnt-On Residue
Sometimes, food spills get burnt onto the surface and need a little extra care.

You’ll need:

  • A glass-ceramic scraper (or a hard plastic scraper)
  • A non-abrasive cleaner
  • A soft microfiber cloth

Steps:

  1. Apply a small amount of cleaner to the affected spot.
  2. Hold the scraper at a 45° angle and gently slide it to remove the residue.
  3. Wipe with a damp cloth, then dry thoroughly.

Tip: Always move the scraper carefully and lightly—too much pressure can cause fine scratches.
