How to clean the stainless steel stove top

Hello, Just wondering what products and cleaning tools can I use for my thermador stainless steel stove top without scratching it? Can I get rid of the scratch marks?

I have a 48" pro series, stainless. I cannot get it clean around the burners and it scratches extremely easy. I had a DACOR stainless and it cleaned better than this. I am disappointed that I bought this. I could have had any range I wanted. I dread using it because I then have to clean it.

I used a hand vac on the top of mine and the plastic left marks where I went across. There were lots of crumbs i was trying to pick up.I tried stainless steel cleaner over it hoping it may reduce the scratches or remove (wishful thinking i guess). I didnt think plastic would leave scratches on stainless steel. Help!

Someone else suggested Easy Off Oven Cleaner (I used fume free). I just finished using the Easy Off (make sure you cover the electronic ignition) with Q-Tips and my top looks almost as clean as when I first got it.

Try a non abrasive cleaner like bartenders helper. it wont scratch and should help to tone down some scratch marks.

I cannot get my burners on my stainless steel gas stove top clean

What I would try. Assuming the "burners" means the cast iron assemblies on top of the stainless steel, remove them to an area outside. Perhaps on a piece of plywood, and clean them with oven cleaner. Grease may drip off them, so a deck or driveway are unacceptable. Wear gloves and watch splatters. Wash thoroughly with fresh water before reusing. Beware. Caustic chemicals can discolor stainless

Re: Streaks

After a final clean up with a a wet & well rinsed cloth buff the surface with a microfibre cloth & it will look like new.

If there re any difficult ares to remove use a glass cooktop
paste cleaner (from Sears, etc)then and finish off with the microfibre cloth.

Thermador PCS364GDUS griddle needs cleaning.

Wear gloves, put all items in a garbage bag. Put outside and spray a can of easy-off oven cleaner on all parts. Seal bag and let sit for 24 hrs. They should come out looking new after you rinse them off. After you wash them off, put them in a 300* preheated oven for about 30 min to ensure they are dry.

Cleaning Thermador Cooktop?

To clean the stainless around the star burners try applying Easy-Off oven cleaner around the stars with a Q-tip (spray the cleaner onto the stainless surface first because it's very hard to control the spray output). The cleaner will make your stainless sparkle and the Q-tips allow you to get close enough while controlling the application. Scrub gently with the Q-tip and the stains will disappear within minutes. Wash thoroughly with a wet cloth. I've used this on my older model Thermador stainless cooktop for 5 years.

Ingiter won't stop sparking.

You might have cracked the electrode if you were scrubbing next to it, otherwise you might try taking a little sandpaper and scuffing off any residue on the top of the igniter and seeing if that does the trick. Good Luck!
