Help with Frigidaire Stove top

RibbonsRosesRainbows — Sun, 24 Aug 2014 17:30:46 GMT

I was boiling pasta with cheese and spinach on the stove last night and it looks to be a black glass top Frigidaire Gallery stove........and it is cooked in the stove top. I can't believe it has to burn off taking 6 months to look better? Surely there is a cream or something that removes cooked on stains without scratching the glass burn top? Help please if you have one of these. There is a cleaner but it does not take off burned stains? That is crazy.

I haven't tried it but the guys who installed our granite .. . saw a small burned on spot on my stove from boiled over macaroni the night before . . . and he easily removed it with a straight edged razor blade.

NO this can scratch it and I know my boyfriend would not allow that to happen. I am going to call someone about it tomorrow. Thank you.

Is it his stove top?

My glass top stove came with a straight edge razor to remove burned on stuff. But it will still be stained so you then have to try various chemicals til you get it clean.

<h2 class="Heading2">Instructions</h2>

1

Allow the glass stovetop to cool completely before beginning to clean it.
2

If the stain is thick, scrape away as much as you can with a plastic spoon or a dull knife.
3
If the stain extra tough or extra old, apply a generous amount of olive oil to help loosen the food.
4

Remove most of the food with a single-edge razor blade.
5

Mix 2 tbsp. baking soda with enough water to form a paste. Cover the stain with the paste and allow to sit for about 10 minutes, but don't let it dry.
6

Clean up the burnt food with a soft cloth.
7

If burnt food still remains, reapply the baking soda and water paste, wait 10 minutes, then apply lemon juice. The fizzing action will help remove what remains of the burnt food.
8

If you are unable to remove the remaining burnt food stains, proceed with a Mr. Clean Magic Eraser. Read and follow the instructions on the package.

Weiman Glass Cook Top Cleaner. Are you trying to clean the spot before he can see it?

I "soak" it with a very wet cloth on top to loosen.

I have a nonabrasive glass top cleaner too.

I also use my pampered chef stone cleaning tool...it is plastic and is kind of like a straight edge razor, but not a sharp.

When using something like a straight edge, you just have to make sure the pressure is even across the flat edge so as to not dig into (or scratch)

You should have a cleaner that came with the stove. If not, a razor and baking soda paste should remove it.

If it's your boyfriend's stove let him clean it. He must have some experience with cleaning it if he owns it.

Personally, I wouldn't be cooking for some man I barely knew. I'd expect him to be wining and dining me so early in the relationship. Baby-sitting his son and cooking now for them sounds like he has free maid service.

You deserve better.

Check the manual that came with the stove top if you don't have it look it up online under Frididaire stove top. Sounds similar to what I cooked my grandson.

What does he use to clean up spills?

Maybe he has something he uses to clean the stove?

Mmm! I wish I had some pasta,cheese and spinach.

A razor blade won't scratch it if you use it carefully.

Your BF should have common sense enough to know this. If this is his stovetop, then he also got a cleansing cream to go with it. It's not really a big deal.

Next time, remember to stir whatever you are boiling, so that it doesn't boil over and don't keep it on "high" for the entire time. When I boil pasta, as soon as it comes to a boil, I lower the setting and stir until cooked.

You can also let it cool off and put a damp cloth over it to soften it and it should come off very easily. If not, then a little scrub pad (comes with the cream) will clean it up perfectly. I think it's called "Cerama Bryte"....

Google Cerama Bryte and you'll see it comes with a "scraper" and a pad.....

Call the manufacturer, but there are good tips here, though. The manufacturer might know of a special product that works well on their particular glass top.
