14. Avoid using car wax on your stovetop.

To make it easier to clean up accidents, the hack proposes applying auto wax to your stovetop. After all, the polish is excellent at keeping stains and grime off your car's body. Is this a home hack worth attempting, or should we abandon the concept entirely? The disadvantage is that auto wax is combustible, so you shouldn't use it near open flames in your kitchen. It's also a heavy-duty product that shouldn't be used around food. So, while this hack does help in theory, it's not the best idea to use it.
