Things You'll Need:
- Glass cook top cleaner
- Sponge
- Razor blade
- Lint-free towel
- Dish soap
- Hot water
-
Step 1
Keep spills wiped up during the cooking process. Use paper towels to wipe up any water or liquids that may boil over. This will prevent any unnecessary cooked-on residue.
-
Step 2
Allow the cook top and all burners to cool completely before cleaning the entire surface. This will keep your fingers safe from burns, and prevent any unforeseen damage to the surface.
-
Step 3
Clean the entire surface with dish soap and hot water, using a sponge. If you've had a spill that has adhered to the burner surface, wipe up as much as you can. Dry the surface with a lint-free towel.
-
Step 4
Remove and hardened residue from burners with a razor blade. Very gently scrape away the residue without applying force or pressure, to avoid scratching the burner and surface. Once you've removed the burnt-on residue, wipe down the surface with hot soapy water again, and dry with a lint-free towel.
-
Step 5
Clean the entire surface with a specifically-formulated glass cook top cleaner. Different brands may have different application methods, but typically all you need to do is spread a thin layer of the cleaner over the cooking surface. Use a paper towel or a dry cloth to wipe the cleaner over the surface. Don't rub it in or wipe it off immediately. Allow it to dry.
-
Step 6
Wipe the cleaner off with paper towels or a dry cloth. The surface will look dull. Now take more paper towel and start to polish the surface. Use circular motions and continue to wipe down until the surface once again shines.
