How to Clean Up a Burnt Spill on a Flat Top Stove

The ability to wipe clean a flat cooktop stove is one of its most appealing qualities. Unfortunately, if you accidentally allow a spill to burn onto the stove’s surface, you could damage the appliance by using inappropriate tools and cleansers to remove it. Never use abrasive household cleansers or scouring pads on your cooktop, since they will degrade your stove’s glass or ceramic surface.
