How do you use a hob scraper for kitchen hobs?

First, put on protective gloves and prepare your equipment for cleaning. Hold the scraper at an angle of 45 degrees to the ceramic or induction hob.

How do you remove stains from a ceramic hob?

Light marks and smears can easily be removed with a damp cloth with a little washing-up liquid. Then wipe the whole surface with clean water and finish with a paper towel.

One of the basic tips for cleaning a ceramic hob is to make sure it is cold and has cooled down. Never scrape it under any circumstances; in general, a damp cloth and the gentle cleaner mentioned above are sufficient. A soft sponge or cloth (e.g. microfibre) can also be used for cleaning – this way scratches are avoided.

The best solution is therefore to clean grease and other dirt regularly and not let it dry on. If it does dry, use the dedicated scraper.

How do you clean an induction hob the home way?

Aside from special products available in shops, you can also use several proven home remedies.

The first method is to apply a special solution to dried-on dirt – preferably water mixed with a little vinegar.

Another home remedy is to use shaving foam. Squeeze a generous amount of shaving foam onto the induction hob, then spread the product and cover the hob with cling film. Press it down and leave for 10–15 minutes. After this time, remove the film and wipe off the remaining product with a cloth or paper towels. Finally, use a damp cloth and wipe the hob thoroughly. Shaving foam dissolves dirt and burnt-on residue very well, and the cling film prevents the product from drying out. Thanks to this trick, your induction hob will shine like new.

Another product designed to remove burnt-on stains and deposits from an induction or ceramic hob is a solution of hydrogen peroxide and bicarbonate of soda. Sprinkle the bicarbonate of soda onto the dirt and pour a small amount of hydrogen peroxide over it. Gently scrub the surface of the hob in circular motions with the resulting paste.

Simply prepare this product in a container, then apply it to the soiled surface and rub it in for a while with circular motions. Finally, rinse the surface with clean, lukewarm water.
