Cleaning burnt-on stains from a glass cooktop is probably one of the most frustrating cleaning jobs. No matter how much you scrub, cloudy marks and stubborn rings can feel impossible to remove.
When a Facebook user posted to Bunnings Mums Australia asking for tips on removing horrible stains from her glass cooktop, it stirred up nearly 500 responses, but one clear winner emerged: Cerapol.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- Hundreds of Australian home cooks recommend Cerapol for removing stubborn stains and burnt-on marks from glass cooktops.
- When paired with a glass scraper, users say Cerapol can help restore cooktops to a near-new shine.
- Regular cleaning and a protective sealant like Ceraseal can help prevent future stains.
What is Cerapol?
Cerapol is the ceramic glass cleaning product that somehow sneaked its way past us into cult status. Used with a glass scraper, you can practically turn back time on your glass stovetop.
One person commented on the Facebook post, “Cerapol is great; it always comes up brand new-looking after I’ve used this!”
Another Facebook user captioned a picture of Cerapol and a glass scraper as, “THIS AND NOTHING ELSE.”
Why do people swear by it?
Best of all, it’s readily available at Bunnings for $10.99. With a 4.6-star rating on the website, nearly all of the reviewers say this product does exactly what it’s supposed to.
As one reviewer wrote: “I’ve used this on my Miele ceramic glass cooktop for the past 4 years and it always keeps it looking new. I use Cerapool with paper towel after wiping away the initial layer of grime with a spray of Windex.”
Some reviewers say it worked on their oven, too.
“I recently used it on the inside glass door of my oven, which had baked-on fat, grease, etc that nothing else could remove, but surprisingly, Cerapool removed it with ease. A must-have product for kitchen cleaning.”
How to prevent future cooktop stains
To preserve your cooktop, clean it every two to three days and use Ceraseal after cleaning for added protection. Ceraseal is a clear, silicone-based product that seals your cooktop against future spills.
Where to buy Cerapol
Cerapol is available at the following retailers:
- Bunnings, $10.99 for a 250 ml bottle
- Woolworths, $7 for a 150 ml bottle
- Coles, $6.45 for a 150ml bottle
- Amazon, $16.54 for a 250ml bottle
Let the cooktop cool, then follow the directions on the bottle. For stubborn burnt-on residue, your cooktop manufacturer may recommend a scraper designed for ceramic glass before cleaning with Cerapol.
Cerapol is intended to clean marks and residue on the surface. It won’t repair scratches in the glass.
