Step-by-Step Instructions
1. Remove the Burners
Carefully remove the stove burners from your stove. If they are electric, ensure the stove is turned off and burners are completely cool before handling.
2. Soak the Burners
Fill a large bowl, bucket, or sink with hot water. Drop one or two dishwasher tablets into the water and let them dissolve. Place the stove burners into the solution, ensuring they are fully submerged. Let them soak for 30 minutes to an hour, depending on the level of grime.
3. Scrub Away Residue
After soaking, use a sponge or scrub brush to gently scrub the burners. The dishwasher tablet solution will have loosened the grime, making it easier to remove. For particularly tough spots, you can rub the tablet directly onto the stain.
4. Rinse and Dry
Rinse the burners thoroughly with warm water to remove any residue from the cleaning solution. Dry them completely with a clean towel or let them air dry before reassembling them onto the stove.
5. Repeat if Necessary
For burners with heavy buildup, you may need to repeat the process for optimal results.
