She was doing hardcore parkour and knocked some Tupperware onto the stove. The stove that she had turned on.

Everyone is fine, but my stove is kinda fucked.

If it is a glass top stove, a razor blade scraper does wonders

[-] LaunchesKayaks@lemmy.world 3 points 3 months ago

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.

Yeah they did. That's a perfect kitty right there.

Sorry about the stove, though.

Our stove is so easy to turn on. I bump into it and flip on the gas accidentally pretty often. My curly tailed dog has as well. I need to figure that out.

is it a samsung? they sent me some clips to put on the knobs because it was easy for pets to turn on

[-] sleepmode@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago

I think it’s a GE. Pretty ancient. I’ll have to look for some of those.

Was about to say, they sell little silicone clips that fit on dang near any stove nob for child proofing. I've kept them on long after because of cats and how easy it is to bump aand accidentally turn it on. And unlike moat child proofing, not too much od a hassle to use. Got like 6 for under 10. Completely worth it.

You rock. Thanks for saving me the research.

How is she ever going to learn chemistry if you keep shutting down her experiments?

[-] its_kim_love@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 3 months ago

Good work Jelly. Maybe tomorrow you can achieve your dreams of being an outside cat.

She did not like the firemen.
