Vicki Giglio on Jun 06, 2013I keep a single edged razor blade nearby...after cooking, spray with windex and scrape the glass with the blade at a 45 degree angle so as not to scratch the surface. wipe dry with paper towelsHelpful Reply

KMS Woodworks on Jun 06, 2013I also use a razor on my glass top. The far majority of my cooking is done in well seasoned old time cast iron...which is a satin black...no worries about rings on those....they never see the dishwasher or soap.Helpful Reply

Terri Ball on Jun 06, 2013I assume with older electric range, with rings and pans you are talking about rings and drip pans? And that these comes apart from stove? If so, use a one gallon ziplock bag (Per ring and pan), add about 1/4 cup or less of ammonia (yes the stuff that smells) zip the bag. Set in the sink or a bowl (in case of leaks) overnight. Wash as any dirty dish, just soap and water (I do it in the kitchen sink). Baked on gooo washes right off. Make sure you DO NOT use anything with BLEACH (like a rag or soap with a booster in it). This works well with grill grates that have been used well too. Only difference is I use a trash can and 1 cup of ammonia, let it sit outside overnight - then suds up and hose off.Helpful Reply

Patti Nicholas on Jun 09, 2013ammonia is the answer! it also works in the oven, put a bowl in the oven over night and the next morning the gunk just wipes off. If you need to scrub something use a paste of baking soda and dish soap and let it sit (up to several days...I did it before leaving on vacation) and then scrap off with a dry sponge. The roughness of the sponge works as a non-scratch scouring pad.Helpful Reply

Frankie Laney on Jun 13, 2013I was just going to suggest ammonia. It's the fumes that do the work, just be sure to seal them up in a plastic bag. The fumes do the work.Helpful Reply
