How to Remove Scratches from a Ceramic Cooker Hob - TESTED

[@derekwalton16]

They are NOT scratches, but aluminium marks from sliding the base of the pots on the ceramic and are purely on the surface. Simple to remove with metal polish ( Autosol) - A scratch is actual "scored" damage to the surface of the ceramic and cannot be rubbed out. Appliance service engineer of 52 years experience .

Hi Mr. Walton, I have scorch marks on my white stove! HELP!

[@ArchNemesis314]

You're right, all I needed was a soft scouring sponge and a metric tonne of elbow grease. (I'll get autosol before the next house inspection)

[@Anne-zs5ql]

I share your view. I too have shiny rings on my cooktop, most definitely from my espresso stovetop pots (aluminum-chrome-something alloy? apparently a softer metal mix, hence the abrasion?) So the metal polish tip is something I'd like to try. Anything else won't help with that. The company you recommended does have quite a few different products though. My question: liquid or a paste? or what can you recommend specifically? Thx

Wow, the car polish trick is great. Thanks for speaking clearly and deliberately. Plus, you're a cool guy!

Personally I think that ceramic stove tops will scratch no matter what you do. I have a KitchenAid pro series and it is a mess. I do not slide my pans around. I put it on the burner and lift it off when I am finished. Im not a chef so I am just boiling hard-boiled eggs, water for tea, etc. It's a hot mess. Then I bought a new cheap stove for a cottage and after one time boiling water for noodles, it is scratched and discolored. I am convinced they are just cheaply made and they will scratch and discolor no matter what you do. Funny how we have pyrex baking dishes that are not scratched at all after years of baking, scrubbing, clanging them around in the sink, etc. This video was good to show us that polishing does offer some hope.

[@wkjeom]

The expensive stove tops like Kitchen Aid and JennAir scratch the easiest. I can scrub the living daylights out of my GE stove top, even with a stainless steal scrubber and I get my stove top clean, not scratched. It kind of amazes me that the less expensive stoves are best.

Cerama Bryte, ceramic stovetop cleaner is what I use. It’s designed for stovetops. Just put on stovetop. Using a wet paper towel, spread around and rub. Carefully use a razor blade to remove caked on spills. Wipe clean and see the amazing difference. Being using it for 20 years. Available in Canada.

HELP IS HERE! There is something that is made expressly for this purpose. It is only $4.15 at Walmart. It is this: "Weiman Glass Cooktop Cleaner & Polish - 15 Ounce." It is a special polish for these kind of cooktops. One came with my stove years ago and it works like a charm. My stove top still looks like new. Use it over the entire top before using the stove as it cleans and also puts up a protective barrier on the surface. Reapply every few months to keep it looking good. Note 1: Do not use paper products like paper towels on the cooktop to clean as they can make microscopic scratches. Always use a soft sponge or cloth or vinyl scrubby. Note 2: If you use a scraper like a razor blade to scrape off burnt-on food, always wet the surface with water or Windex before using the blade to prevent scratching the top.

[@gloriakoch4242]

1st method: you mix the baking soda with water in a paper cup, making a thick liquid similar to Elmer’s glue. Pour the thick liquid onto the stove burners. Scrap stove top with a racer blade. Scrap in one direction so as not to scratch stove top. 2nd method: .use liquid purchased for stove top. 3rd: use aluminum foil 4th: baking Sodexo and vinegar 5th: use glass stove top cleaner with electric polisher buffer in your drill Di several times until scratches are removed. My method: use a glass stove top liquid cleaner purchased at the grocery store or wherever appliances are sold (call to see if they have it) and a razor.

[@klauswigsmith]

It's just cosmetic damage...they still function perfectly with these scratches

[@basedstarlordquill3148]

Fixing scratches is all about sanding down damages on the surface to either be even or polished, both work well on things like wood, plastics, or metal. However to be honest it's never going to work well on glass or ceramic surfaces since both molecular structures are not the kinds of things you can easily sand down to make an even surface or polish it. If u have minor scratching the final method is worth it but if u have major damage just leave it alone and be careful with your stove.

[@johnanderson3700]

Try baking soda and vinegar; that will clean good; I still haven’t found a good method to remove scratches. Always clean after use. You can use various cleaners to prevent buildup. If you brew your tea, make a tea with used bags and it will remove the acid and a lot of grease. Scratches are like cuts in the glass; that’s what makes them so difficult to remove. I think you would have to buff down past the scratch and I think that is difficult. Norwex makes a cleaner; it’s called cleaning paste and it’s good for removing a lot of stains, oils, and some of the white marks. Biggest issue is to clean right after burners cool down; don’t let things build up on burners. As far as scratches go just be careful to place cookware directly on burner and remove without any scraping motion. Glass tops aren’t made to handle moving cookware on the glass surface. Be sure to hold handles when stirring to prevent movement. There’s nothing I’ve found to remove scratches; it’s just like windshields; very hard to get scratches out because scratches are cuts and have removed part of the surface which can’t be restored to my knowledge. If anyone finds a method please post. I think manufacturers need to study this issue and come up with better stovetop surfaces as the glass tops are difficult to keep in good shape over time. Also it’s hard to remove grease from surfaces even with the best of cleaners; they still tend to streak. There has to be a better way to build stove tops that can stand up over time and retain good surface looks; glass ain’t it.

[@poppymontrose0507]

I use a very sharp blade to gently scrape off any burnt residue, then use Fairy liquid with a non-scratch scourer; Cif for any stubborn bits. To finish, I buff with a microfibre cloth.

I always use either baking soda paste or Bartender’s Friend and gently taking my time, scrape with a razor. If it is just cooked on grease like it usually is, I can make them look new. I recently had a lady come by that had either bought a stove or some kind of appliance from me sometime in the past stop by and ask me how I got them so clean as she knew I had good luck cleaning stove tops. I did not recognize her, but it made me feel good that she stopped and asked me. Water seems to work about as good as vinegar for the baking soda paste to me. I just let it sit a good while longer than this video shows.

For baked oven residue that refuses to budge I use a blade from a Stanley knife and gently remove the carbon food stains. Hold it at an angle so it is pretty flat against the surface and it removes the baked on remains. Polish off with some cif cleaner…job done.

To completely remove the scratches, you'll have to basically grind down the entire surface to the level of the bottom of the scratches. Other than that, the only option is to polish off the sharp edges of the scratches to make them less visible ( like when polishing surface scratches on a cars clearcoat).

I was cringing when you used a wodded piece of tin foil on your top. The top is a glass/ceramic blend and requires special care. I just got a new all black glass top stove. It is beautiful, but requires a lot more attention than my white one and scratches very easily. Even a dish with a rough bottom will scratch it. Remember, that if you clean then wax after each use and cook on it carefully, you can keep the top looking almost new. I cook all the time (1-2 times every day) and after 6 months, my top still looks really shiny and almost new (I have 1 small deep scratch, but I am the only one who seems to notice it, according to my husband). FYI, I invested a good deal of time and used this method on a friend's old cooktop and it also made a huge difference. Anyway, for anyone interested, here is my routine: 1. Once the top is cool, I use a straight edge blade at a 45 degree angle to carefully loosen burnt spillage areas before cleaning. It even seems to work on minor scratches somehow. Unfortunately, deep scratches are likely there to stay, so be careful. 2. I then use a soft wet sponge with dish soap to clean the top and dry with a paper towel. 3. I then use a few drops of cooktop wax with a damp paper towl then quickly and gently rub as it dries to remove most of the residue. 3. Finally, if any streaks, fingerprints or swirl marks remain, I then apply a fine spray of cool tap water then gently dry with a new paper towel until it sparkles. Keep in mind that deep scratches are often there to stay, so if it matters to you, be careful not to drag metal across the top and NEVER use an abrasive pad, brillo or comet.....you will only get more scratches. Good luck to all

[@meboyotube]

For mine I do almost the same thing but I finish with cheesecloth. It's seems to get rid of the streaks. When it's clean I lay a black drying pad on top of it. When I wash stuff by hand I use that area to dry. If I need counter space I put a huge cutting board on top of the drying pad. Sounds obsessive but it's a system that seems to work lol.

Hold your pan _in place_ while stirring. That's it. The professionals will tell you the same day in and day out because it's the truth. Do as chef's do with the tossing technique. Lift your pan off the cooker, then toss. (If you do this please do so to the side of your cooker, to avoid breaking it.) Or use your tools for their designed purpose i.e. moving the food in your pan. 🔥 Just remember "Hot" spots in induction cooking are from your _pan_ material itself. So moving the pan on the cooktop is muscle memory that does not apply to this technology. It's easier and more effective to simply move the food.

I wish we could have another type of cooktop. This is my third glasstop. I am sooo careful but with time it gets ruined. Don't like them at all.

[@ΕυαγγελίαΚούβα]

It was very interesting. What kind of polish. Shoe polish does it help also ;

[@matsmith8006]

In my experience with polishing glass, is that you need an abrasive polishing. Shoe polishing is usually just an oil/wax/pigment blend, so it won't help.

[@UltravioletHeather]

I would think that as soon as you start using the burner the heat would reverse your polish. How did it do after use?

[@lionintu]

according to comments here the polish is abraisive which will sand off the top most imperfections in the glass. so used correctly, its not actually leaving any residue

Crema bright does it good too. Can get the "kit" with all you need.

I have become so irritated by the constant cleaning of this cook top. I love cooking. I hate this stovetop.. I appreciate what you sharing. I’ll never do this.

[@rcha2024]

yea , thst polishing cream is just "lubricant," which gives the "illusion" of the scratches going away . Once it dries off, the scratches will still be there.

Wow magic sir, i will use now the last one method.. 😊 thanks

Which pad for the drill did you find??? The one that was advertised is not available at Amazon. They offer a similar one.

[@lesborden1020]

What happens when you turn on the heat after adding the polish? Does it smoke?

[@clorox1676]

not if you clean it properly after polishing. Polish compound is not a coating like wax, it's the mechanical action of its abrasive particles what smooths the surface, you have to remove it after polishing the surface.

[@diyr6894]

That's correct. I thoroughly washed the cooker top before i used it again.

[@lionintu]

@@clorox1676 okay so its actually sanding off the top of the glass to restore the glass finish

[@meboyotube]

Thank you for doing all the hard work for us. Being a guy I was thinking: car (scratch) polish? Glad you tested it. :)

[@diyr6894]

You thought right. And it works really well.

[@s.forSoap]

I noticed it today my cooktop got crack..is there any way to replace it..if yes please suggest

[@deevideos1880]

Made a mess of the kitchen, used T-Cut, and the electric polisher I use for the car. The result was no improvement. The issue was not scratches, it was a carbon deposit that discoloured the glass hob.

[@dennisilu2]

Thank you for sharing. I am going to try this on my sons ceramic hob.

[@alexandrajones2310]

How does it look a few weeks/ months later? Do you think you’ve removed some of the protective coating this making dirt stick more?

[@diyr6894]

As long as you keep it clean by wiping any food off after each use, it will stay looking like new.

[@bojanamilovanovic5469]

Could I do polishing to the glass oven door? Thank you.

[@karylila1]

Great question! I have same problem!

[@peterchristian6376]

Use a scrunched up plastic carrier bag and scrub the marks. Works a treat.

[@honestmcgyver]

No chemicals/chemical reaction would fix a scratch. Only abrasive and mechanical action. As a car detailer it seems only suitable grade polish and machine will shift

[@kayebyatt3855]

Your pans SCRATCHED the surface so use relevant pans. Using oil or wax based products will keep ceramic tops shiney. Bicarb/ vinegar or cleaning creams will remove grot.

[@GadgetsGearCoffee]

Thank you!! Did the car polish end up making a tiny dip in the glass? Since I imagine it's removing material or not? Like when you look with the light reflection

[@diyr6894]

No, the polish improved the look dramatically. The polish is not abrasive enough to remove glass. It's used more to soften the sharp edges of the scratches so the light doesn't bounce off them and make them more visible.

[@JH-hw4yh]

You should NEVER move your pan back and forth on a ceramic top like you see people do on a gas stove grate. No wonder he got scratches on the surface.

[@cob571]

it looks more like he keyed it for the test.. they're really small zigzags

[@JohnnyCatFitz]

They aren't scratches though they look very much like them. They are baked on stains. The glass itself is quite sturdy though a huge pain in the A$$ to clean.

[@johnc8209]

Idk how you cook then.

[@JH-hw4yh]

@@johnc8209 you stir the food in the pan as opposed to moving the pan back and forth on top of the stove. Have had this type of stove for 23 yrs and it looks brand new. Also, you clean it with cook top cleaner if you spill something…easy peasy to take care of. 😊

[@anthonyflacke]

Best scratch remover is Cerium Oxide and water to make a paste. And high speed pad.

[@victoryfirst2878]

Will this work for auto windshield ??? What brand works best ???

[@thedazzlingape2006]

what I use is a random copper sheet thingy, that I flattened on one side and sort of sharpened on some sandpaper, the copper being softer than glas, made me think I could just simply scrape the glass clean and I was right.

[@thedazzlingape2006]

it ssounds scary but razor blades are used to scrape paint of off windows and hardened tempered steel is definitely harder than copper.

Thx I was searching for that video coz I got a tiny scratch on my stove n I want to remove it . But from where can I get the polish ??

any auto zone, or O'Reillys its just car polish Sarah;)

Any ceramic hob cleaner with a scouring pad, not a soft sponge as you used, would have tackled that.

Try Bar Keepers Friend. Make it Thick and Pasty and leave overnight.

[@legendarymayormarylikestur8874]

You cant use a ceramic or glass cooktop as you would a gas burner. The manuals all say to not slide pans around on them. Use a spatula to move the food in the pan. When food, grease or oil burns onto the burner, use a ceramic/glass cooktop cleaning kit to remove the burnt on gunk. The kit will have a non scratch scrubber, polish and a razor blade. They also come with instructions. It takes me maybe 5 minutes to

[@pizzablender]

On an induction cooker, it is possible to have a sheet of paper between pans and cooktop.

[@fangmin2890]

Will the heat melt the polish away quickly when you use the stove?

Only way to remove scratches is polish the service deeper than the scratches. I would not do this often or get crazy with. Good video.

Very true. You don't want weaken the ceramic hob by removing too much over time.
