In a small bowl, mix the baking soda and dish soap to form a paste.
Slowly add the vinegar and lemon juice into the paste, stirring until combined.
Add a few tablespoons of warm water to create a slightly runny consistency.
Apply the mixture to your stove surface, focusing on areas with grease or stains.
Let the paste sit for 10–15 minutes to loosen grime.
Use a damp cloth or sponge to scrub the surface in circular motions.
Rinse with warm water and wipe down with a dry cloth to finish.

Variations:
