Product Information

To begin, always burn non-resinous, seasoned hardwood. Resinous or wet wood produce by-products that are more likely to accumulate on the stove’s glass than non-resinous alternatives. 2. Don’t burn for hours Don’t use razor blades or steel wool to get the soot off the glass. While these tools can easily remove the soot and grime from the fireplace, they can leave behind scratches on the glass. I literally just dumped some of the wood stove ashes into a bit of water, gave it a stir until it was something of a paste, and it was ready. I used paper bag because we don’t get the newspaper, and I think that’s true of most people these days. Brown paper bag seemed to be a good alternative to cleaning with newspaper.

However, it will come off with the methods we’ve shared above. Try ash and water first, and if that fails, try a stove glass cleaner.The HG glass cleaner is easy to use, and users find they can achieve great results with minimal effort. I found that the stove glass cleaning product worked very well, but no better than the ash and water recipe.It did a great job but why not just use the free method that works just as well? This stove glass cleaner is a professional-grade cleaner that is non-caustic and free from strong odours. Like the others on this list, it is designed to be applied to the glass, and left for a couple of minutes to work its magic before wiping it away. Firstly, the brighter mornings and evenings often bring to light the darker areas of our homes we overlooked in winter – leaving many of us slightly surprised at just how murky our stove glass has become! Rather than cleaning your stovetop more than once a week, opt for this kit that’s designed to be used once a month (or more frequently if necessary). It comes with a scraper to use on debris, built-up food, and grease.

Avoid long, smoldering fires. These types of fires produce large amounts of smoke, which will leave a sooty residue on the glass. This multipurpose stovetop cleaner doesn’t require any additional scrubbers or scrapers to remove leftover residues and stains. Just apply the cleaner to the cooktop, let it sit for a minute, then wipe it away with a damp cloth. All wood burners will accumulate a layer of soot and dirt on their glass over time, which means the homely appeal of a roaring fire is lost. You should also avoid closing the airwash vent completely as this will lead to soot build up inside the wood burner. 5. Don’t overload the burner Then, sweep out the wood ashes from the bottom of your stove and put them in a bowl to use later in the cleaning process.Mix wood ash and water together and then rub the mixture onto the glass with newspaper or crinkled brown paper bag.

At the end of the day, there isn’t really a lot you can do to stop wood stove glass from getting dirty, BUT you can clean it once a week and it will look much better. We’ve only just stopped using it as we come into summer, and it has about 8 months’ worth of build-up on the glass. Dip the damp newspaper in the ashes of the fireplace. Rub the glass with the ash in a circular motion. The ash will work as a mild abrasive, which will help clean the soot without scratching the glass. For a heavy-duty cleaner, a degreaser might be good to have on hand if your stovetop has really been put through the wringer.Weiman has been around since the 1940s, and this particular cleaning product has been around since the late 1980s. Needless to say, this product has stood the test of time and remains a great kitchen staple to keep under your sink. It seems like common sense, but just to be sure, always make sure your stove glass has cooled down sufficiently before you attempt to clean it. Some people think that slightly warm glass is easier to clean, but you should be just as fine if your glass is completely cool, too.

Tools such as steel wool or even sandpaper might immediately get rid of the soot on your wood burner’s glass, however it will also leave scratches across the surface. To test the wood stove glass cleaners, I separated the glass door into 4 sections with painter’s tape. I then used a final 5th method on the area under the tape at the end. Ready to test available wood stove glass cleanersI tested it on the dirtier portion of the glass, so that could have been a disadvantage, but ultimately, it didn’t seem to work as well as using ash. 4. Wood Stove Glass Cleaner Wood stove glass cleaner can be fastest Use a soft cloth to wipe the inside of the stove glass down with some soapy water. You might be able to cut through some of the soot build up here alone if you use some elbow grease!
