Introduction
A glass stovetop can add a sleek, modern look to any kitchen, but keeping it spotless can be a challenge. With regular cooking, grease, food spills, and residue from pots and pans can quickly accumulate, leaving your stovetop looking dull and dirty. Traditional cleaning methods can be time-consuming, requiring heavy-duty cleaners or scrubbing. But what if there was an easier, more effective way to get your glass stovetop sparkling clean? Enter Bounce dryer sheets! Yes, you read that right—Bounce dryer sheets, combined with a little warm water, are a surprisingly effective solution for cleaning your glass stovetop. In this article, we’ll explore how you can use this simple household item to effortlessly clean and restore the shine to your stovetop.
Ingredients
1 or 2 Bounce dryer sheets (unscented or scented, depending on preference)
Warm water (enough to dampen the dryer sheets)
Soft cloth or sponge
Optional: mild dish soap (for tougher stains)
Instructions
Prepare the Stovetop:
Make sure your glass stovetop is cool to the touch before starting the cleaning process. You never want to clean a hot stovetop as it could lead to burns or damage the glass.
For any heavy food spills or burnt-on residue, scrape off as much as possible using a stovetop scraper, but avoid using abrasive tools that could scratch the glass.
Wet the Bounce Dryer Sheets:
Take one or two Bounce dryer sheets and dampen them with a little warm water. You don’t need to soak them—just ensure they are wet enough to be pliable and able to scrub effectively.
Start Scrubbing:
Once the dryer sheets are damp, gently rub them over the surface of your glass stovetop. The fabric of the dryer sheet will work like an abrasive, loosening grease, grime, and food residue without scratching the glass.
Focus on areas with built-up stains, grease marks, or spills. You’ll notice that the dryer sheet helps break down oils and sticky substances easily.
Wipe Away Residue:
After scrubbing, use a clean, soft cloth or sponge to wipe away the residue and any excess moisture. You should start to see your stovetop looking shiny and free of grime.
If needed, add a small amount of mild dish soap to the cloth and go over any remaining spots, especially if there’s still a greasy film left behind.
