Scrub the surface of the glass cooktop with the baking soda to remove a light stain. Wipe the surface with a damp cloth to remove the baking soda.

Apply a dime-sized amount of ceramic and glass cooktop cleaning cream to a damp cloth to tackle any remaining aluminum pan stains. Rub the cream into the stain before allowing it to sit for two to three minutes.

Step 5

Remove the remaining stain by gently running a razor-edged scraper over the surface at the site of the stain. Follow by wiping the cooktop off with a damp cloth.

Step 6

Dry your black glass cooktop with another cloth and buff it to a natural shine.
