Glass Top Stove Cleaning - #1 Best Method

We recently bought a ceramic glass range and it's been great to cook on. The scratches and cleaning, not so much. What I found works really good is a magic eraser of all things! Give it a try before breaking out the buffer and polishing compound ;)

My stove is 9 years old. I use pretty much the same method, but every time I use the stove (not every once in a while). The one thing I do differently is to use spray stainless steel cleaner/polish. I just spray on after all the cleaning and 5 second buff with paper towel. No haze. Looks almost as good as the day I bought it. 😁

This gentleman is spot on and correct with the cleaning method of using the Weisman Glass Top Cleaner/Polisher. A co-worker told me about the Bar Keeper Friend to use to get to and clean the tough areas. Depending on the amount of build up of spilled, over-flow, and long term grease that is sitting on the top of the stove. I basically only use the Bar Keeper Friend once (maybe twice a week) 1st I sprinkle the Bar Keeper onto the stove glass top. Then I use a wet dish cloth (not soppy wet though) and I put in a bit of elbow grease type of rubbing to remove the extra cooked on grime. Rinse that dish cloth out, and wipe down the glass top, dry with a portion control piece of paper towel. 2. Then I use Weisman Glass Top Cleaner/Polisher as Bill's video demonstrated. Then the stove is ready for use daily. It takes only about 3-5 minutes to clean if the stove top if its really grimy. Or 1-2 minutes if it is not that dirty. The stove looks wonderful all of the time.

That is exactly the way I do it. To not scratch it with the scraper, do back and fwd movements, never in circles! Finally I use the Weiman spray, it’s fenomenal, it gives a ‘new’ type of shine to the glass and is true, it will make your nxt cleanup easier as it creates like a barrier of protection. Fully recommended.

I grew up with an original Corning glass stove. Corning had a powdered and liquid product called Delete. It was SO expensive. My mom was told to use Barkeeper's Friend, which she did and the stove top looked great 30+ years later when we sold the house. Now that I have my own glass top stove, I still use the (liquid) Barkeeper's Friend. It's sold in grocery stores near cleansers and is inexpensive. Leave the liquid on the spills for a bit (an hour or so) and the dish sponge with blue side will take it all off. Razor blade only if needed.

I ise these same techniques but had never thought of baking soda until you mentioned other have used it. I had some very very thin film caked on and was unable to remove with a razor blade and needed something a bit more abrasive. A damp paper towel and a dusting of baking soda, mixed with some elbow grease and time took it right off! Of course, finish up with some weiman! Thanks for the in depth cleaning video!

Here is a tip to prevent scratches in the first place. Before use take all of the pans you want to use, and, really buff out the bottoms with a good fine abrasive to remove any small rough spots that can cause scratches. I also avoid sliding and shaking the pans while cooking, use a spatula to move the food around instead.

When I got my Kenmore electric range with the glass cooktop, it came with a small bottle of "COOK TOP" cleaning cream made by ELCO LABS with a small yellow scratch pad. It works fairly well if you first clean the stove with Dawn and a kitchen sponge first after every use. It really gives it a nice buffing shine.

I used Bar Keeper's Friend on my glass top stove and it kept it beautiful for years I moved and I plan on buying another glass top stove

In this video you used what looks like an auto rubbing compound. I've used a thing called jeweler's rouge. It's a red powdery substance use for jewelry. It is great. Give it a shot. Purchased a glass topped stove (GE) and am experimenting. So far, soap, water, razor and like you said once a month (I do it once two weeks apart depending how dirty it is) is fine. Thanks for taking the time to share and help us guys out here out.

Our stove is approximately 1 year old..we got a top cleaner with it when bought. Since then I have bought 2 other kinds of cleaner (one was Barkeepers friend). I found the two I bought weren’t as good as the original I used but couldn’t remember what kind it was....the brand name. YAY........YOU ARE USING IT!! It was what you are using on this demonstration. Thank you.

I have been using this since I moved in into my appartment 2 years ago. Best product ever.

I use an SOS pad and it works great! Now I do this everytime I use the stove so I don't have to put a lot of pressure on it. No scratches.

Enjoyed tutorial still in 2019. Hate flat tops & would never buy one. I rent and I want to be able to buy my own stinking stove so I can actually cook with it instead of putting it on display. I'm afraid to use them because they get ruined so easily. Using baking soda right now and I can only imagine how bad it is going to look. Thanks for showing us that the pans scratch much more than any razor.

Comments are brutal! Damn. I have cleaned mine exactly like this for years. Once a month. I finish with glass cleaner, it surprising how much more of the cleaning compound shows up on your towel I have thought of buffing mine but haven't because of the mess. I subbed thanks for the shortening the learning curve on my dryer.

Weiman is my secret weapon to polish weathered and dull headlights..

Awesome Thank you Bill, my stove is only A year old and I have a couple of scratches on it! They make me crazy Cause I'm trying to keep it new looking, thank you 👋😊

Thanks very much for this. Showing the scratchy pad's and razor blade's safe results was very useful.

MyMyMy, I have cleaned my stove top exactly like that for the last 23 years. Still have the same range.
