How do I remove sticky oily residues from the stove top knobs and surrounding areas?

SR

To remove sticky residue or built-up grease from an enamel stovetop, make a paste of baking soda and water, then rub gently with a damp cloth. (Don’t use this mixture on stainless-steel stovetops, which require specific commercial products to prevent scratching.)

For tough stains, you may wish to dab a small amount of oven cleaning to a cloth and rub gently.

With any approach be careful because if the enamel is burned, tough scrubbing or harsh chemicals may do more damage than good. You may always check with your stove manufacturer for recommendations specific to the product.
