There are many ways that you can make your kitchen look sleek and modern. You can go with all stainless steel or you can go with the wrought iron look. Many have been gravitating towards glass top stoves. Purchasing one of these stoves can help your kitchen to have exactly the look you are going for. The problem is you do not want the surface to get all scratched up by iron skillets or broken. It needs to be protected.
There are a few ways you can safeguard your glass from getting scratched. You can even use methods to get rid of scuffs from things like copper pots once they have occurred. In most cases you will be able to not only clean, but protect your cooktop when using waterless methods. When using these methods, you will not have to keep a cover over the cooktop. Instead you will be able to show it off.
Prevent Scratches
You may have seen professional chefs shaking their Calphalon sauté pans back and forth on a traditionalrange. This may cause you to want to try and do the same thing on your cooktop. The thing to remember is that even one of the stainless steel pans from the Tramontina line can scratch the surface if you slide it back and forth. Avoid doing this to keep the surface pristine.
Get Rid of Scuffs
If you do find scuffs from something like the cookware by Rachael Ray, there are a few things you can do. First, you can try using baking soda and water to scrub the surface clean. You can also clean the surface with white vinegar to prevent any further scuffs. This way even brand new Cuisinart pans will look great on the cooktop.
Repair Cracks
After you have invested a lot of money in a downdraft cooktop, the last thing you want to happen is for a crack to occur. Then your hand slips and the stock pot drops to the surface creating a crack. The great thing about glass top stoves is that you can get it fixed. You can hire a professional to come out and fix your stove so you will be cooking with your Circulon pans again in no time.
