To make a baking soda paste, mix one part water with three parts baking soda. Adjust the amount you need depending on how big your stovetop is. To create a thick paste, add more water and mix it well with the baking soda. Even if baking soda works well on its own, the paste will adhere to your stainless steel stove top's surface better and be able to remove stubborn stains.
After making the baking soda paste, apply it to your stovetop surface using a soft-bristle brush or wall paintbrush if it's the only available brush you have. Leave the holes in your stove top where gas escapes uncovered to ensure that you keep the inside of your stove in good condition during the cleaning process.
Then, let the baking soda paste sit and wait for about two hours before you continue.
Next, spray white vinegar over the baking soda in a spray bottle, just enough to dampen the stovetop surface. It will create a foaming or bubbling reaction and break down the stubborn grease and grime on your stove top. Respray the stainless steel stove top with vinegar if the cleaning solution dries up. Then, let the vinegar mixture rest for about 10 to 15 minutes.. Once the result satisfies you, wipe and dry off the surface of your stove top using a kitchen towel to ensure water spots are removed from the appliance. You can add a few drops of lemon oil or olive oil to the stove top surface and dry it with a microfiber cloth or paper towel. Then, reinstall the freshly cleaned stovetop components on your gas stove.
