Watermarks on flat top stove

I've had my beautiful stove now for about a 6 months. I've had a few incidents of my sauce pan lid not fitting and allowing steam to escape and go onto the burner itself. Now I have this mark on my stove that looks like a grayish stain but it isn't. It is hard to describe.

I have tried to clean this mark up for about 3 months now. Every time I clean it, it just mocks me and laughs. I am not ashamed to say I've actually cried trying to get this thing to go away.

Does anyone have experience with this?

What are you using to clean it? When I had a flattop this and Cerama Bryte did the job fairly well;

I use Barkeeps Friend on my flat top stove. Works well for me.

Crescita-I use Cerama Bryte with the yellow scrubby thing.

This spot is not a burn mark or anything like that. It's a faded mark that looks like water/steam got on the burner and faded it. You can only see it at an angle but not if you look directly at it.

I might use the Barkeepers Friend because I see a lot of people using it on their flat tops. I have the dark black surface and the smallest things show up.

It's driving me insane!

If that works post it. I have the same flat black stove top and today I left a burner on for an hour and it burned up the olive oil into horrible spots.

Magic eraser! That is my best friend with getting the difficult spots off mine. It was recommended when we bought ours.

I second the magic eraser. It worked great on mine.
