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.

It is. I’ll have to give that a try
Maybe acteone and a scraper? May need a stronger solvent, depending on what burnt plastic becomes, but it may soften it up
Recently did this but using a sharp flat kitchen knife. Angle it almost horizontally and scrape it over the surface like it’s a sharpening stone.
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 a correct angle and putting the correct pressure on it is key.
Interesting. The manual from the GE cooktop I bought two years ago does not say this.
Just for grins, here’s a manual for the oldest discontinued GE electric cooktop I could find on short notice. Note the publication date of 2017. Your card is on page 16:

This one is so crusty they’re still referring to Cerama Bryte by name. One wonders exactly when that licensing deal fell through…
Seconding the rec! I had a plastic melting incident last year and that fixed it right up.
