Final Thoughts
You don’t need a magic potion to revive your glass stovetop.
You just need three pantry staples — and a few quiet minutes.
So next time you’re staring at a grimy cooktop…
don’t stress.
Grab the baking soda.
Mix the paste.
Wipe with care.
Because real cleanliness isn’t loud.
It’s quiet.
And sometimes,
it starts with a little fizz and a lot of faith.
And that kind of sparkle?
It reflects more than light.
It shows pride in your kitchen — one polished inch at a time.
