Studies show that nine out of ten people would rather walk across hot coals than try to clean their stovetop - OK, not really, but it's still a job we all hate.

Fear not, there is a solution. This easy hack will help you to efficiently remove the nasty grime and grease from your stovetop. It will also remove a lot of pain from your life, unless of course you still try the coal walking thing (we don't recommend it).

Here's what you'll need:

• Baking soda
• Scouring pad/sponge
• Butter smooth wax
