How to Make Your Glass Stovetop Clean Again – The 3-Ingredient Deep Clean That Really Works
You love your glass stovetop.
It’s sleek.
Modern.
Easy to wipe… until it isn’t.
One boil-over.
A splatter of tomato sauce.
A forgotten pot on high heat.
And suddenly, your once-smooth surface looks like a war zone — streaked with burnt-on stains, water spots, and rainbow swirls that won’t budge no matter how hard you scrub.
The good news?
You don’t need expensive cleaners or a replacement cooktop.
With just three common household ingredients — baking soda, dish soap, and white vinegar — you can safely dissolve stubborn grime and restore your stovetop to near-new condition.
No harsh fumes.
No toxic sprays.
Just real results.
Let’s bring back the shine — gently, naturally, and without the elbow grease.
Because real cleaning isn’t about force.
It’s about smart chemistry and one smart paste. 
Why This Method Works (The Science Behind the Sparkle)
Each ingredient plays a key role in breaking down different types of buildup:
Baking Soda (Sodium Bicarbonate)
A gentle abrasive that lifts stuck-on food without scratching glass
Dish Soap (Like Dawn or Seventh Generation)
Cuts through grease and oils from cooking
White Vinegar (5% Acetic Acid)
Dissolves mineral deposits, hard water stains, and cloudiness
When used together — especially as a thick paste — they work synergistically to loosen, lift, and clean without damaging the delicate ceramic-glass surface.
Never use metal scrapers, steel wool, or oven cleaner — these can scratch or etch the surface.
Step-by-Step: Deep Clean Your Glass Stovetop in 20 Minutes
What You’ll Need:
½ cup baking soda
2–3 drops liquid dish soap
¼ cup white vinegar
Spray bottle (optional)
Soft sponge or microfiber cloth
Plastic scraper (like a credit card or gift card)
Clean, dry towel
Important: Let the stovetop cool completely before cleaning. Never apply cold liquid to a hot surface — risk of cracking!
Instructions:
Step 1: Wipe Away Loose Debris
Use a dry microfiber cloth to remove crumbs, dust, or loose residue.
Step 2: Make the Cleaning Paste
In a small bowl, mix:
½ cup baking soda
2–3 drops dish soap
Add vinegar slowly — it will fizz!
Stir into a thick paste (like toothpaste).
Optional: Add 1 tsp water if too thick.
Step 3: Apply & Cover the Surface
Spread the paste evenly over stained areas using a sponge.
Focus on burnt spots, rings, and cloudy patches.
For tough buildup, cover with a warm, damp cloth for 5–10 minutes to soften grime.
