I found a dirty corner of my kitchen window with a few cooking stains and cat nose prints.

I let the stains dry before continuing.

Applying the cleaner with a cloth would be easier.

It was fairly easy to wipe around.

The cleaner also had a nice scent.

However, most of the cleaner came off the glass after one pass.

Cleaning a small part of the window with a glass stovetop cleaner took about 90 seconds.

However, I can normally clean an entire kitchen window within that time using a regular spray-on glass cleaner.

A glass stovetop cleaner also needs buffing.
