Electric stoves are a dream to cook on and usually cheaper than gas, which explains why so many kitchens have them. But anyone with a glass cooktop knows the struggle: one tiny boil-over, and suddenly your beautiful stove is covered in stubborn, burnt-on stains. The good news? There’s an easy way to bring that glass surface back to life.
All you need is some baking soda, liquid dish soap, distilled vinegar, and a towel. Start by filling a spray bottle with vinegar and generously spritzing the entire stovetop.

Next, sprinkle a layer of baking soda over the stains. This combo creates a gentle, natural cleaner that works wonders without scratching your glass.
Now, grab a towel and soak it in really hot water with a little dish soap mixed in. Make sure the water is hot enough to help break down the grime—gloves are a smart idea here to protect your hands. Wring the towel out just a bit so it’s damp but not dripping, then lay it across the stovetop. Let it sit for 15 to 20 minutes.

After the wait, remove the towel and gently scrub away any lingering spots with a soft brush. If your cooktop is in particularly rough shape, don’t worry—repeat the process one more time and it’ll do the trick.
Finally, give the stove a light spritz of vinegar and wipe it down with a microfiber cloth. Voilà! Your glass stovetop will be sparkling, spotless, and looking practically brand new.
This method is simple, safe, and doesn’t require harsh chemicals—just a little patience and a few household items. Say goodbye to stubborn stains and hello to a kitchen that shines!
