It is. I'll have to give that a try
A plastic razor blade scraper may help keep you from scratching your stove top. They’re easy to find on Amazon and other online stores. I’m not sure about physical store availability though
You won't scratch your stovetop with a razor blade. The ceramic glass top is significantly higher up on the Mohs scale than the steel razor blade.
If GE/whatever company can be trusted it is. What isn’t though is the enamel paint that is on top of the glass that keeps the bottom of your pan from totally coming into contact with the glass.
You should really try a plastic scraper first.
The manufacturer literally recommends you use a regular razor blade in the manual. This is from a GE manual, since you brought them up:
And so does the manufacturer of the most popular ceramic glass material used. A plastic scraper won't accomplish much, especially if the plastic it's made out of is softer than whatever is stuck to your cooking surface.
The markings are etched into the glass, not painted.
Thanks for posting this. Holding the blade at the correct angle and putting the correct pressure on it is key.
