In the Instagram video, Carolina first removed the burners and placed them in a sink full of hot, soapy water.

She then made the cleaning spray, applied it onto the stove top then left it to sit for 30 minutes.

Once half hour had passed, she scrubbed the stainless-steel surface with a soft sponge followed by a microfibre cloth to polish.

The burners and stove were both left looking sparkling clean as if it were a new kitchen that hadn't been used before.

The homemade spray is a suitable alternative to using harsh chemicals, which often aren't ideal to use around children or those who have allergies.

Vinegar was used with water as it's a natural solution that removes bacteria and germs, while the dish soap contains ingredients to lift stains easily.

For tough stains, it might be wise to apply bi-carbonate soda onto the stove top before squirting the spray.

The bi-carb will safely react with the vinegar and lift hard stains. 

The short clip has since been viewed more than 106,000 times and others praised Carolina for sharing the simple but clever insight.

'Love this, thank you!' one person wrote.  

Another added: 'I use the same exact recipe but I add some rubbing alcohol as a disinfectant.'
