Cleaning a glass stove top can often feel like a daunting task. The glossy surface shows every speck of dust, every drop of spilled liquid, and every stubborn burnt-on food particle. Despite its sleek appearance, a glass stove top can be notoriously difficult to keep spotless.
Many people make common mistakes when trying to clean this delicate surface, often causing more harm than good. However, with the right approach, you can keep your stove top sparkling clean with minimal effort. Here’s what most people do wrong and a low-effort hack to make cleaning your glass stove top a breeze.
Common Mistakes People Make When Cleaning a Glass Stove Top
1. Using Abrasive Cleaners or Pads
One of the most common mistakes is using abrasive cleaners or scouring pads. While it might be tempting to grab a steel wool pad or a harsh cleaner to scrub away stubborn stains, these can easily scratch the glass surface. These scratches not only dull the appearance of your stove top but can also weaken the glass over time, making it more susceptible to cracks.
2. Cleaning When the Surface is Hot
Another frequent error is attempting to clean the stove top while it’s still hot. Many people think they can wipe away spills and splatters more easily if the surface is warm, but this can actually set the stains further into the glass. Additionally, using a wet cloth or cleaner on a hot surface can cause it to steam, which may leave streaks or water spots behind.
3. Using Too Much Liquid Cleaner
Glass stove tops require only a small amount of cleaner. Using too much liquid can lead to residue build-up, which dulls the surface and creates a sticky layer that attracts more dirt. Excessive liquid can also seep into the stove’s seams, potentially causing damage to the internal components.
