Plastic melted on glass hob - help!

[bartyfum]

I accidentally dropped a bread bag onto a hot hob and it melted instantly. I’ve tried everything I can think of to get it off - razor blade scraper, different cleaning products, a sticky stuff remover from Amazon etc. It’s such a fine layer that there’s nothing to scrape - you can’t even feel it with your finger.

Any ideas?! We are in a rental and really need to sort this.

The glass scraper should sort the worst of it out, I'd then use Pink Stuff paste to remove the rest and then a good wipe over with a hot microfibre cloth

Thanks! Will try the pink stuff paste.

Whats worrying me is I can’t even feel a film or anything to scrub / scrape!

Magic sponge would be my first try

Actually maybe don’t try magic sponge as it may scratch

this has some better ideas

You might need to call in an oven cleaning firm.

I would warm.the hob, but not too much and then try a scraper designed for a glass hob
( a razor blade may scratch the glass)

That's what I was thinking too, maybe warm it up with a hair dryer instead of putting the hob on

Good idea. The hair dryer is more controllable.

Make a paste of bicarb ( baking soda if you're American) and wsshing up liquid .
Lesve for a few minutes .
Clean.

You could try things like acetone too.

The guy fitting a cat flap to a double glazed window said this

Maybe give that a try ?
