Melted a cotton dish towel on my new glass-top stove, HELP!

Anonymous
I don't understand why you are using kitchen towels while you are cooking? Are you talking about pot holders maybe? I just set those on a counter a distance away from the cooktop.

Setting stuff down on the cook top is a bad habit that you should break.

I nearly had a visitor burn down my home b/c she kept putting the kitchen towel on the stove while using it even though I kept reminding her not to. When the towel started to singe, she finally got the message.


I'm guessing OP has figured something out in the four years since she posted.

As long as you don't have any frosted lettering on the top, a new, clean razor blade should work. Glass is harder than steel, but old razorblades can have crap embedded in the blade that is harder than glass. I would try one of the stove top cleaners first though. Those cleaners are a very fine, slightly abrasive polish.
