RESTORE a stove top glass top (what works might SURPRISE you)

These glass tops can get pretty dirty...so dirty you’re not sure if you’ll EVER be able to restore it back to the way it looked when you bought it. The special cleaners you buy which are supposed to clean it don’t. We ran some experiments to see if we could restore the surface back to what it used to be. We tried toothpaste, we tried rubbing compound... none of these would even touch the baked-on grime. I even went out to the garage and got the automotive buffer for making cars shine, but even this did not work! When I can’t get paint to shine, I use 1200-grit sandpaper. I was a little concerned that it might scratch the glass but what did I have to lose? Sure enough, it worked! Then I used the rubbing compound to continue to make it shine, and in the end I completely restored my glass top stove. (I have had a big crack on one corner of my glass stove top for years so, like I said, I had nothing to lose.)

@Thomas-lk5cu 3 года назад
It has indeed improved. Induction cooktops never get badly marked because the surface itself is never really hot. We have a 10 year-old induction cooktop, and it still wipes sparkling clean with just a micro fiber cloth and a bit of dish soap.

I have had 3 glass tops over 30 years. The white ones looked cleaner longer. I always use the Weiman cleaner the stove company recommended and the razor that comes with a kit. Never would need this amount of scrubbing. Edit to say after reading comments I will buy induction next time. Sounds better and I had an induction burner once I really liked.

@EzekielsCall

You can't prevent it when things spill, but you are supposed to use a razor blade scraper tool, and then use a glass cook top cleaner to clean /polish it. I do this on the one where we rent and it looks great even after 3 years. I don't recommend eating anything that spills out of a pan, or putting it back into the pan, because I don't know if anything in the Weiman cleaner would be toxic if ingested, but it does a great job keeping the stove top clean. You need to clean it every time you cook, and never cook on a dirty burner surface. Some people say aluminum pans can cause stains too, because they bond with stuff on the surface from the heat. I don't know because I don't use aluminum pans. I use stainless steel , and I even use a cast iron, though you have to be super careful you don't set it down too hard so you don't damage the surface. Some people say you shouldn't use cast iron on them, but I never had any issues, and even Maytag says it's safe to use them.

they require constant cleaning and I cant use my whirly pop any more. We actually bought a second, used stovetop with the old elements just so we could use it for canning and popcorn in our utility room. The real benefit has been the fine temp control and the convection oven, which is much more energy efficient. At the time we bought this, we were considering going all solar, and was concerned about total energy usage. Looking back, it probably wasn't the best decision but i've just adapted. It does look very nice and it bakes way better, so I'm not displeased.

Those burner pan stains are being caused by using cheap aluminum or copper infused pans that melt off the bottom of the pan and cement to the glass cooktop when heated. Always use stainless steel or titanium pans and that won't happen. My personal favorite is Gotham Steel or Thyme & Table titanium pans.

You’d have to buff out the scratches. 800 grit is more aggressive than 3,000. Just like body work, you have to move up in the grits and abrasives prior to buffing with a compound for a smooth finish.

@EzekielsCall
@EzekielsCall Год назад
The razor blade alone should remove all the burned on residue. I use that and sometimes I use the Weiman cook top cleaner, because it says it helps protect the surface, but I can almost always just wipe it down after using the scraper, which is the recommended method. I imagine over time Baking soda will put micro scratches on the surface that though you can't see them, will cause it to look bad eventually.
@monaleigh1862

Scraping the crud off of a glass top is best done with a flat, one sided razor blade - carefully using it to scrape those places around each burner that get burnt on, spilled liquids, etc. It is really fast - then the polishing of the stove top goes much quicker as well.

To avoid this in the first place just keep your stove clean from oils and residues, otherwise the oils will burn in and bond really hard to the glas, its the same thing that happens when you season cast iron cookware. I hate cleaning but the stove is basically the one thing that I make sure to clean between each use just because it's so much easier to wipe it down in a minute compared to letting it get burned in and then have to scrub for an eternity.
@amy-pag
@amy-pag Год назад
If you use more than a single unit at a time cooking juices will migrate from your pans and get cooked into the other burners while you are still preparing the meal, unfortunately. I have to use multiple cleaners and every couple of days a razor blade to make sure there is no residue. Even cleaning agent residue makes new marks. The best solution is to avoid glass stove tops, except for the newer induction ones which are supposed to be easier to maintain.
@awarose
@awarose Год назад
@@amy-pag never found that to be a huge issue even with things that splatter a lot since I just make sure to wipe of the area before using an other unit, and avoid moving things around to much, but yes it can happen. We had glass tops when they were pretty new and had a few before induction came and then we changed to that, induction is easier especially if something boils over it takes longer for anything to burn in

Food has minerals in it (especially green vegetables) that will form a hard white deposit on your pans and glasstop. If you let it build up, it becomes difficult to remove. Barman's Friend (being acidic) removes them quite easily when they are fresh. Dealing with scratches on the glass is a whole different thing. There is a similar problem with marine fishtanks and pumps.

I guess I'm not really surprised that sandpaper would remove tiny bits of glass. Polishing compounds might work okay on hard finishes but glass is a lot harder than those so... sandpaper in increasing grades like 1200, 1500, 2000 would prob work if you either took the time or had a flat sander that rotated so you didn't take all day. interesting. If the surface is JUSt glass, I don't see why this wouldn't work.

Some of these glass cooktops have a very long warranty. Be sure that yours is out of the warranty period before assuming that it is. As cracked glass cooktops are heated up and cooled down repeatedly, there is a danger of the cooktop suddenly breaking, or "exploding", with predictable disastrous results. This is why many manufacturers have longer warranties on these glass cooktops.

Using small pans on the big burner( archaic), makes more of a mess because of splatter. Use the stove properly, and avoid a lot of trouble. Polymerized oils are horrible to clean off. I ended up carefully using a very sharp blade. And who slides their pans on and off a glass stove top, especially anything with cast iron. His stove looked abused

Can anyone confirm that there is a 'coating' on the surface of a glass stovetop? That would be some pretty hi tech stuff since the surface regularly gets red hot. My recommendation is to just try the sandpaper, the finest grit, or use cerium oxide.... but just on a tiny area, maybe an inch wide. Look at the results after it dries completely.

I saw a video where 800 grit sandpaper made those circular marks disappear. Trouble is new marks reappear within weeks. Only makes sense if you are moving and need to show the house has a nice shiny stove. I didn't sign up to sand my stove once a week.

You should not be "sanding" your glass stovetop. Also, I wonder whether the compound you buffed with is toxic or not. This is not how you should treat a glass stovetop. Not sure why it got so bad to begin with. You should clean it every time you use it. You should be using a razor blade scraper for burned on stuff, and then clean it with a glass cook top cleaner

Decent video but clearly an amateur on polishing. Yes 800 works but don’t stop there. Treat it like a hard smooth surface and follow up 800 with 1000/1200, 1500, 2000, and higher wet-or-dry high grade sandpaper like 3M or Miyadi. Then Follow up with buffing compounds also from coarse to fine, to polishing compounds. Check out the Drexel Versa for this project. Use a glass/ceramic cleaner after cooking when stove is cool.

BAKING SODA AND PEROXIDE! 1) clear stove heat up 2) turn off wait for it to still be warm but not too hot to touch 3) sprinkle baking soda over stains 4) spray peroxide over baking soda 5) either using Emery cloth (finer than sandpaper or a razor clear off stains

Those marks on the glass (stains) are the result of the heat, that overtime produces this nasty look to the hub, there´s no magic solution to remove them without creating another problem, for example, the sanding solution on this video traded the stains for some nasty looking scratchy swirls, so it´s just a matter of you knowing what´s worse, but since the price on the induction hubs dropped a bit in the past years and considering they don't have these issues unless you drop a heavy pot on top on the edges (they are not potato proof) then I would very much prefer to buy a new induction one instead of going through the pain and stress of trying all several hypothetical solutions online. If you´re a klutz, then stay away from them and go for the old electric/gas ones. FYI: Why not buy a second broken one similar to yours (same brand ofc) for cheap and replace the glass?

@@jmc8076 Those "recipes" only work with light to medium food stain burns but you cannot (I've tried) remove those glass burn stains as they are deep into the glass structure well below the surface. I have tried glass buffing, using a professional glass paste on an orbital polisher with a glass polishing pad on with zero to none results (maybe my hub was way too ruined to recover) but hey if you are a DIY freak like me you will try it regardless, the reason for my earlier response is to prevent loss of time, money and energy to others, not like me.

Sandpaper...well, that's fine if your intent is to show off the stove to its new owner and never have to worry about it again. I can assure you that all of the micro scratches that you just put into the glass surface will cause the surface to collect debris and stain a lot quicker from here on out, and depending on the depth of the scratches, may even create weak points that will cause the glass to crack upon heating.

@@asahai2 The problem with what he did is that he elected to use the quickest method rather than put in the required work to do it properly, sandpaper uses abrasives that are very hard and not meant for this type of material removal. If you insist on using sandpaper for economy, then at least use a minimum 2000 grit...and know that it will take more than 5 mins. Alternatively, you can use a proper glass polish that uses finer and softer abrasives for this type of work www.amazon.ca/Cerium-Glass-Polishing-Powder-3-5microns/dp/B005HWBC5S/ref=sr_1_17?keywords=Glass+Polish&qid=1578855491&s=hi&sr=1-17
