Shari on Apr 06, 2014I recently tried a new-to-me cooktop cleaner, Carbona Ceramic Cooktop Powder Cleaner. It comes with a little scrubbie and it blows the other cooktop cleaners I've tried right out of the water. Sometimes I also use a razor blade to carefully scrape off cooked-on residue but this Carbona stuff works so well that I rarely have to use the razor blade anymore. I have also found that it really helps to clean spills and splatters promptly after the burner cools because otherwise it seems like each successive time I cook, the older stuff really bakes on and then it is as hard as concrete.Helpful Reply

Alice Landwert on Apr 06, 2014I have a special knife, that is safe for glass top stoves. I also, have a cleaner-"Weiman" Glass top cleaner. First put a little cleaner on the top than gentley scrap the debris off, rub the glass cleaner all over the top. Keep doing this scraping very gently, it will come off. When the debris is totally off rub the cleaner and wipe off with dry paper towels, this does work. I have had my Glass top for seven years, and it looks "BRAND NEW" (You can purchase the knife and cleaner from Walmart). Hope this helps.Helpful Reply

Shari on Apr 06, 2014@Alice Landwert The next time you need to buy cleaner, consider trying the Carbona that I mentioned above. I used to use Weiman too but I think the Carbona works so much better!Helpful Reply

Lori Kelly on Apr 06, 2014Don't laugh! You are going to think I am crazy but this works, at least for me! Go to your laundry room, get your Shout or Spray @ Wash, let it set but not dry. If it dries, spray more. Your stove top will shine like new! It's safe for the knobs as well! I have teenagers! After all, that stuff is made to cut grease. The little knife is for the built up gunk! Shines like a new penny, girls! Good luck!Helpful Reply

Linda on Apr 10, 2014Tried the Spray n wash, as well as the vinegar and baking soda .. no luck there yet. Even tried using a hot steaming towel and covered the burner, nada. Thanks for your suggestions, though. Our local Lowe's does not carry the Carbona product. Trying elsewhere.Helpful Reply

Shari on Apr 10, 2014@Linda, try Walmart. I got my Carbona at my grocery store, Publix, but I don't think the Publix chain has stores as far north as NY. I seem to recall seeing it at Walmart though. Actually, I just went to the Carbona website and here's a list of the stores that supposedly carry it: http://www.carbona.com/storelocator.phpHelpful Reply
