How to clean glass hobs: Safe and effective methods

Glass hobs can look stylish and modern, but only when they're clean. 

A mirror-like surface shows dust, stains and food particles easily, so you need to clean in regularly.

Here are some tips on how to clean it safely and effectively.

Allow the hob to cool

Ensure that the glass hob is completely cool before starting the cleaning process, because cleaning agents may evaporate way too quickly.

Remove loose debris

Use a soft cloth or paper towel to wipe away any loose crumbs, food particles, or spills from the glass hob surface. This step helps prevent scratching when you proceed to the next cleaning steps.

Prepare a gentle cleaning solution

Mix a solution of mild dish soap and warm water in a bowl or spray bottle. Avoid using harsh or abrasive cleaners, as they can damage the glass surface. 

Apply the cleaning solution

Dampen a soft cloth or sponge with the soapy water or glass hob cleaner. Gently wipe the entire glass hob surface, paying special attention to any stubborn stains or cooked-on food residues.

Remove stubborn stains

For tougher stains or burnt-on residues, you can use a non-scratch glass scraper or a razor blade specifically designed for glass hobs. Hold the blade at a shallow angle and carefully scrape off the residue, being cautious not to scratch the glass.
