Cleaning a ceramic glass cooktop safely is all about using the right tools, gentle technique, and patience. Here’s how to do it without scratching the surface:
🧼 Daily Cleaning (Best habit)
- Let the cooktop cool completely.
- Wipe with a soft microfiber cloth or sponge.
- Use a few drops of dish soap mixed with warm water.
- Dry with a clean cloth to avoid streaks.
🔥 For Burnt-On Food & Stains
- Apply a cooktop cleaner like Cerama Bryte Cooktop Cleaner or Weiman Glass Cooktop Cleaner.
- Let it sit for a few minutes to loosen residue.
- Gently rub with a non-abrasive pad or cloth.
- Wipe clean and buff dry.
🪒 For Tough, Stuck Residue
- Use a ceramic cooktop scraper such as GE Appliance Razor Blade Scraper.
- Hold it at a low angle (about 30–45°).
- Gently scrape—don’t press too hard.
- Follow up with cleaner and wipe down.
🧂 Natural Cleaning Method (Budget-friendly)
- Sprinkle baking soda over the surface
- Place a warm, damp towel over it for 10–15 minutes
- Wipe gently and rinse
This helps loosen grime without harsh scrubbing.
❌ What to Avoid (Prevents scratches)
- Steel wool or metal scrubbers
- Abrasive powders or harsh cleaners
- Rough sponges
- Sliding heavy pots/pans across the surface
✨ Extra Tips
- Clean spills quickly—especially sugary ones (they can damage the surface)
- Use cookware with smooth, flat bottoms
- Buff with a dry microfiber cloth for a polished finish
