Accidentally melted a plastic container to the burner on the stove. A web search on how to fix this has returned a bunch of AI generated slop.

Does anyone know what the best way to fix this is? I don't trust the search results.

For now, I'm just going to swap that burner for the one at the back of the stove.

The one time I had to fix this I used sharp knife to cut as much melted plastic as I could off the burner. Then I turned out all the way up with the fan on and windows open until it stopped smoking. Maybe not the best idea but it did get the burner clean.

It depends on the level of melt.. but most plastics have a solvent.. Acetone attacks most plastics
