Stainless Steel Maintenance Tips
Routine Cleaning
- Wipe with mild detergent and warm water
- Rinse with clean water
- Wipe dry in the direction that the stainless steel was polished
Removing Fingerprints
- Use Citrus based degreaser (ie. Orange blast) diluted with water (10% degreaser / 90% water), methylated spirits, or other organic solvents.
- Rinse with clean water
- Wipe dry in the direction that the stainless steel was polished
Removing Stains, Discolouration, or Light Scratches
- Use a fine “Scotchbrite” (nylon) pad rubbing along the grain lines and not at right angles to them.
- Rinse well with mild detergent and warm water.
- Wipe dry in the direction that the stainless steel was polished
What NOT to do
Do not rub stainless steel with steel wool as it can cause problems with the stainless steel surface. Some of the fine particles can lodge in the surface of the stainless and will eventually rust, giving the appearance that the stainless itself is rusting.
Enjoy the durability and easy maintenance of stainless steel.
With minimal care it will last a lifetime.
