How to Clean a Glass Stove Top

“A shiny, spotless glass stove top is just a few simple cleaning steps away—let us show you how.”

we know how important it is to keep your kitchen looking pristine, and your glass stove top is no exception. A glass stove top adds a sleek, modern touch to your kitchen, but it can be tricky to keep it sparkling clean. With our expert tips, you can maintain your stove top’s shine effortlessly. Here’s our step-by-step guide on how to clean a glass stove top effectively and safely.

Tools and Materials You’ll Need

  • Microfiber cloths or a soft sponge
  • Mild dish soap
  • White vinegar
  • Baking soda
  • A razor blade or scraper designed for glass stove tops
  • Spray bottle
  • Towels

Step 1: Ensure the Stove Top is Cool

Before you start cleaning, ensure the stove top is completely cool to avoid any risk of burns and protect the surface from damage.

Step 2: Clear Away Loose Debris

Using a microfiber cloth, gently clean the stovetop to remove stray crumbs or dirt. This prevents scratches on the glass when cleaning.

Step 3: Apply a Cleaning Solution

Pour equal amounts of white vinegar and water into a spray bottle. An excellent natural cleanser for oil and dirt is vinegar. Make sure to liberally mist the whole stovetop with the solution.

Step 4: Sprinkle Baking Soda

Sprinkle baking soda over any stubborn stains or burnt-on food. Baking soda is a gentle abrasive that may remove difficult stains without harming the glass.

Step 5: Let It Sit

Allow the vinegar and baking soda mixture to sit for 10-15 minutes. This gives the solution time to break down the grime and loosen the stubborn residue.

Step 6: Gently Scrub

Using a damp microfiber cloth or sponge, gently scrub the stove top in circular motions. Focus on areas with baked-on food or stains. For particularly stubborn spots, use a razor blade or scraper designed for glass stove tops. With the scraper held at a 45-degree angle, carefully remove any leftover material.

Step 7: Rinse and Wipe Clean

Once you’ve removed all the stains, use a clean, damp cloth to wipe away the baking soda and vinegar solution. To make sure all residue is gone, rinse the towel several times.

Step 8: Dry and Polish

With a gentle, dry cloth, dry the stovetop. To achieve a streak-free shine, buff the stove top with a clean, dry microfiber cloth.
