Can these pads be used to apply and polish glass/ceramic cooktops?

They will apply the cooktop cleaner to the surface but have no abrassivness to scrub off burn splatter on the burner surfaces. To clean a cooktop properly the pad needs to be a little abrasive and used with a ceramic cooktop cleaner. The Mothers applicator pads are for applying wax to an automotive finish. I purchase cook top scrubbing pads at Walmart for cook top cleaning.

I applied my polish directly to the pad. The pads worked great. The waffle design keeps the heat down, so there is less chance of burning the paint.

They would work....but I wouldn't recommend them.....seriously everything sticks to them no matter what you cook or how you oil the pans!

I would think they will work well on any hard surface. I have ceramic tile.

Yes. Used on glass/ceramic top before remodel. Have since used on gas cooktop. Just keep flame well under kettle to not damage sides.

I don't think so. Most of laser mouse won't work on glass surface except it's dull polish.

The grinder should work. It is just spinning abrasive pads, the better question is whether these diamond abrasive pads will polish glass. That I am not sure about. I have polished glass pieces that were used to make concrete countertops with these pads though. Grinding only glass may react differently.

The instructions that come with the cookware state that this can happen. They do not recommend using this cookware on glass/ceramic cooktops. I'm going to try anyway...anybody else tried?

I have been using mine on a smooth glass cooktop without any problems. Works great!

According to manufacturers instructions they are not safe, nor recommended for use on glass top stoves. The imperfections in the porcelain can scratch your glass top and if they boil over can also cause your glass cook top to fuse.

For best result you need diferents pads an apropiate chemical, remember low speed is for buff, dont use more that # 5 to polish

No it can not and there would not be any sanding pads that size buffing/polishing only.

Yes and I am relatively certain they can be used on most heating surfaces. Definitely gas.

I don't have any experience with ceramic cooktops but I don't see why not. Look online to see what kind of metals you can use on your stovetop. Stovetop manufacturer should tell you.

I think if you have been using any kind of cookware and haven't had any problems, this would not be an issue definitely. The cookware is kind of delicate and light and inside the non stick is ceramic. I don't believe you will have any problem as far as scratching your glasstop surface.

Yes, I've used these on ceramic as well as gas with no real difference in effectiveness.

Yes, we use it on our ceramic glass cooktop. Agree with other writer about it cracking if placed while hot on a cool surface. That's how we lost our first visions.
