The Bake-O-Glide® Solid Induction Hob Protector combines scratch protection with a sealed, wipe-clean spill barrier.
Unlike open-mesh protectors, its clear silicone-coated surface prevents splashes and boil-overs from passing through to the glass beneath. It is available in four fixed sizes and is the easiest protector in the range to wipe clean.
Heat resistant to 250°C. For induction hobs only.
New and exclusive to Bake-O-Glide.
Also available in Original and Edged designs.
Available Sizes
Choose a size that matches the width of your induction hob. If you are unsure, please measure the glass surface or check your hob manual.

Original vs Edged vs Circles vs Solid
All four protectors are built on the same heat-resistant silicone coated fabric. The difference comes down to the edges and the surface, how much spill protection you want on top of everyday scratch protection, and how much of the hob you want covered.
| Feature | Original | Edged | Circles | Solid |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Surface | Open mesh with open edges | Open mesh with sealed edges | Open mesh with open edges | Sealed solid surface with sealed border |
| Spill barrier | Liquids pass through the open mesh | Liquids pass through the open mesh | Liquids pass through the open mesh | Sealed surface prevents liquids passing through |
| Protection | Everyday scratch protection | Scratch protection with a durable sealed border | Everyday scratch protection on individual zones | Scratch protection with a sealed, wipe-clean spill barrier |
| Best for | Everyday protection at a lower price | Daily use, heavy cookware and the widest choice of sizes | Spot protection on one or two zones, keeping the rest of the hob clear | Maximum protection with the easiest surface to clean |

Which Model Suits Your Hob?
- If you want spills kept off the glass and a surface that wipes clean, choose the Solid. It cannot be trimmed and there is no size between 780mm and 1069mm.
- If you want everyday scratch protection that you can trim to fit, choose the Original.
- If your hob is 800, 900 or 920mm wide, is a BORA model, or you want sealed edges beneath heavy cookware, choose the Edged.
- If you cook on only one or two zones and want to leave the controls and the rest of the hob clear, choose the Circles. Areas outside the circles are not protected.
How to Use
Place the Bake-O-Glide® Solid Induction Hob Protector directly onto an induction hob only.
This protector is designed for use while cooking on an induction hob. It allows compatible
induction cookware to operate normally while helping to protect the glass surface beneath.
Suitable Use
- Suitable for induction hobs only.
- Sealed surface prevents spills and splashes passing through to the glass beneath.
- Suitable for everyday cookware, including heavy cast-iron pans.
- Helps protect against scratches, spills, and stains.
- Heat resistant up to 250°C.
Sealed Solid Surface
Unlike an open-mesh protector, the Solid version has a clear silicone coating that seals the entire surface. Spills, splashes and boil-overs remain on top rather than passing through to the glass beneath, making the clean-up quicker and easier.
It provides the fullest protection in the Bake-O-Glide® induction range while retaining the same low-profile appearance and heat resistance up to 250°C
Because the surface and edges are sealed, this version is supplied in fixed pre-cut sizes rather than trimmed to fit.
Cleaning & Care
The sealed surface makes the Solid the easiest protector in the range to clean. Because nothing gets trapped in a mesh, there are three simple ways to keep it clean:
-
Everyday wipe: Wipe with warm water, mild washing-up liquid and a soft cloth or sponge. The protector can normally be cleaned without removing it from the hob.
- Full clean: Remove the protector, rinse under warm water and clean with mild washing-up liquid. Rinse thoroughly and dry before returning it to the hob.
- Deep clean: soak with a dishwasher tablet in boiling water for 15 to 20 minutes, then rinse thoroughly and air dry.
Allow the hob and protector to cool completely before cleaning.
For longest life, hand wash rather than using a dishwasher, and store the mat rolled or flat.
For best results and to keep your hob looking like new, many customers also use HG Hob Cleaner Extra Strong, Mr. Eco Cellulose Sponge Cloths, and Spontex Microfibre Kitchen Cleaning Kit. We also stock a range of induction hob cleaning products to help keep your hob looking its best.

For Induction Hobs Only
Do not use on ceramic, gas, radiant or solid-plate hobs. If the cooking zone glows red or orange when switched on, it is not an induction hob and this protector is not suitable.
Using this protector on a non-induction hob is misuse and will not be eligible for a replacement.
FAQs
Can I leave the hob protector on while cooking?
Yes, the Bake-O-Glide® Induction Hob Protector is designed to stay on your hob during cooking. It won't affect the induction cooking process or heat transfer, and is heat resistant to 250°C, giving reliable protection under your cookware.
How is the Solid protector different from the Original and Edged?
The Original and Edged are open mesh mats that stop scratches and let heat move freely. The Solid uses the same mesh but seals the surface with a clear silicone coating, so it also works as a barrier against spills. Anything that spills stays on top of the mat rather than passing through to the glass, then wipes away easily. All three are heat resistant to 250C.
Does the sealed surface stop spills reaching the hob?
Yes. The Solid protector surface is sealed with silicone, so spills, sauce splashes and boil-overs sit on top of the mat instead of passing through to the glass. Wipe or lift the mat afterwards and the hob underneath stays clean.
How do I clean the Solid protector?
The sealed surface makes the Solid protector straightforward to clean because spills remain on the surface rather than becoming trapped in the mesh.
For routine cleaning, use warm water, mild washing-up liquid and a soft cloth or sponge. For a fuller clean, remove the protector from the hob, wash it under warm water, rinse thoroughly and dry before returning it to the hob.
For deeper cleaning, soak the protector with a dishwasher tablet in boiling water for 15 to 20 minutes, then gently clean it with a soft brush, rinse thoroughly and air dry. Do not use abrasive cleaners, scourers or harsh brushes and do not put the protector in a dishwasher.
Does the Solid protector leave a mark where the pan sits?
Circular contact marks can appear on the surface where hot cookware has been used. A degree of cosmetic dulling can also develop in these areas. This is a normal effect of cookware coming into contact with the sealed silicone-coated surface and does not indicate damage or affect the performance of the protector.
Clean the protector using warm water, mild washing-up liquid and a soft cloth or sponge. Cleaning will remove surface residue but some cosmetic dulling may remain with use.
What's the difference between the Original and Edged protectors?
The Original version offers flexible, cut-to-fit convenience at a lower price point and can be trimmed with scissors to match any hob size. The Edged version features sealed silicone edges that prevent fraying and provide enhanced durability and grip. Both offer the same heat resistance (250°C) and scratch protection.
Will this protector work on ceramic or gas hobs?
No, this protector is only suitable for induction hobs. Ceramic and gas hobs reach temperatures that exceed 250°C, which will cause the silicone coating to melt and the material to disintegrate. This can cause permanent damage to your hob surface. If your hob glows orange or red when heating, it is NOT an induction hob and this product is not compatible.
What size do I need for my hob?
The Solid protector comes in four sizes: 295 x 520mm (2 ring), 590 x 520mm (4 ring), 780 x 520mm (5-6 ring) and 1069 x 489mm (extra large 5-6 ring). Measure your hob glass surface and choose the closest match. For bespoke sizes, email bespoke@bakeoglide.kitchen with your dimensions.
Why have white spots appeared on my protector?
White spots indicate the silicone coating has melted due to excessive heat (over 250°C), exposing the white glass fibres underneath. This is typically caused by a hot spot on your pan's base or a faulty thermal breaker in your hob. Stop using that particular pan or consult your hob manufacturer. This issue is not a defect in the protector but indicates cookware or hob problems.
Does the protector prevent scratches from cast iron cookware?
Yes, the Bake-O-Glide® Protector is specifically designed to protect your induction hob from scratches caused by heavy enamelled cast iron pots, casseroles and other rough-bottomed pots. The heat-resistant silicone coating creates a protective barrier between your cookware and the delicate glass surface, keeping your hob looking new even with daily use.

After a lot of research I chose the Bake O Glide solid hob protector for my new oven. I’d been researching for a few months before my kitchen renovation finished, compared prices and reviews. As I’m new to induction cooking, I wanted to get something high quality and this seems to be just that! I’m a heavy handed and kind of messy cook, so I do have to clean it every couple days, but it’s easy to wash with soapy water in my sink. I’ve nothing to compare it to, but it looks nice in my kitchen and protects the hob!
A

Very good quality

I already had the original hob protector and used it to convert my hob into work surface in my tiny kitchen. However, i regularly spilled things on it - flour, liquids etc - and found myself having to rinse it under the tap several times a day.
With the new solid one I can just wipe use those spills with a cloth without having to clear everything off the surface and take it to the sink. Fantastic!
