#### 3. **Apply the Paste**

Spread the baking soda paste generously over stains, greasy spots, and burnt-on food residues on your hob’s surface.

#### 4. **Let It Sit**

Allow the paste to sit for 15–20 minutes. This gives baking soda time to break down grease and loosen stubborn marks.

#### 5. **Spray with Vinegar**

Fill a spray bottle with equal parts **white vinegar and water**. Spray over the baking soda paste. You’ll see fizzing — that’s the natural reaction helping to lift dirt away.

#### 6. **Wipe Clean**

Using a damp microfiber cloth or sponge, gently scrub the hob surface. The baking soda and vinegar combination will wipe away grime easily.

#### 7. **Rinse and Dry**

Wipe the hob down with a clean cloth dampened with warm water to remove any residue. Then dry thoroughly with a soft towel to avoid streaks.
