Directions from Packaging

Shake well before using. For glass-ceramic cooktops, wait until the cooktop has cooled down. For stains or spills, apply directly to the stovetop surface. With a clean damp cloth or paper towel, wipe the cooktop surface until clean. For burnt-on stains, first remove excess with a scraping blade and then follow the steps above. To leave a brilliant shine, polish using a clean dry towel or cloth.


Warnings

Warnings: Keep out of reach of children. Contains abrasives. Avoid contact with eyes. Direct exposure may cause damage to eyes. First aid: In case of eye contact, immediately rinse eyes with plenty of water. Remove any contact lenses and continue rinsing eyes for at least 15 minutes. If irritation persists, get medical attention.

Understanding scores

EWG provides information on cleaning product ingredients from the published scientific literature, to supplement incomplete data available from companies and the government. The ratings indicate the relative level of concern posed by exposure to the ingredients in this product - not the product itself - compared to other product formulations. The ratings reflect potential health hazards but do not account for the level of exposure or individual susceptibility, factors which determine actual health risks, if any.

HOW WE DETERMINE SCORES

Hazard score

The Healthy Cleaning ingredient hazard score, from A to F, reflects known and suspected hazards linked to the ingredients. The EWG Verified® mark means a product meets EWG’s strictest criteria for transparency and health.

Score legend
WEIGHT-OF-EVIDENCE APPROACH

A product’s hazard score is not an average of the ingredients’ hazard scores. It is calculated using a weight-of-evidence approach that factors in all of the hazards or health impacts associated with the ingredients.
