Burnt plastic on hob

Help please 🙈

Stupidly left a box of Pepsi max - you know the ones wrapped in plastic - on the hob of the cooker, DC had played with the dials without me realising so when I switched it on at the wall it obviously heated up and melted the plastic

Any tips to get it off?

I've tried baking soda and vinegar, wd40 - Google's idea, warming it up and trying to remove it by nothing has worked 😩

I would try a glass scraper, like a big razor blade in a holder. Mine's from B&Q. It gets stuff off the inside of my oven glass like nothing else. I'd combine with hot water and whatever you normally clean the inside of the oven glass with - dishwasher tablet, kitchen spray, washing soda.

No ideas but much sympathy.
I accidentally turned our hob on when the iron was sat on it. The iron melted and when I tried to get it off big chunks of the hob came away with it.
The hob had to be replaced but luckily the cooker was insured.
Is your hob insured or would the house insurance cover it?

I was going to suggest a glass scraper too.

Off to get a glass scraper in the morning thank you, it's so annoying, thankfully only on one hob but has to be the one I use the most lol

Think the cooker is still insured but I will check :)
