Here’s a simple 2–natural-ingredient method to clean a gas stove top so it looks almost new.
You only need:
- Baking soda
- White vinegar
That’s it.
🔥 Step-by-step deep cleaning method
1. Turn off everything & cool the stove
Make sure the stove is completely cool. Remove:
- Burner caps
- Burner grates
- Knobs (if removable)
This lets you clean every corner properly.
2. Make a baking soda paste
In a small bowl, mix:
- 3–4 tablespoons baking soda
- A few drops of water
Stir until it becomes a thick paste (not runny).
3. Apply the paste
Spread the baking soda paste on:
- Burnt stains
- Greasy spots
- Around burners
- Tough buildup areas
Let it sit for 15–20 minutes (for heavy grease, up to 30 minutes).
4. Spray with vinegar (the magic reaction)
Put white vinegar in a spray bottle and spray it over the baking soda areas.
You’ll see fizzing—that’s normal. It helps lift grease and grime.
Let it sit for 5–10 minutes.
5. Scrub gently
Use a sponge or soft brush to scrub:
- Circular motion for stains
- Focus on corners and edges
Avoid metal scrubbers so you don’t scratch the surface.
6. Wipe clean
Take a clean damp cloth and wipe everything off.
Repeat wiping until no residue remains.
7. Clean burners & grates
For removable parts:
- Soak in hot water + vinegar for 15–20 minutes
- Scrub with baking soda paste
- Rinse and dry fully before placing back
✨ Final result
Your stove should look:
- Less greasy
- Shinier
- Much closer to “like new” condition
⚠️ Quick tips
- Don’t let water enter burner holes
- Always dry parts completely before reassembly
- For very old burnt stains, repeat once more instead of using harsh chemicals
