GUIDELINES FOR MAINTAINING STAINLESS STEEL SURFACES

There are four things that can break down stainless steel and allow corrosion to develop: 1) abrasion, 2) deposits, 3) water and 4) chlorides.

Avoid rubbing with steel pads, wire brushes or scrapers that can leave iron deposits on stainless steel. Instead, use plastic scouring pads or soft cloths. For stubborn stains, use products such as Cameo, Talc or Zud First Impression. Always rub parallel to the polish lines or with the grain.

Hard water can leave deposits that promote rust on stainless steel. Treated water from softeners or certain filters can eliminate these mineral deposits. Other deposits from food or lubrication must be properly removed by cleaning. Use mild detergent and nonchloride cleaners. Rinse thoroughly and wipe dry. If using chloride-containing cleaners or sanitizers, rinse repeatedly to avoid stainless steel corrosion. Where appropriate, apply a polish recommended for stainless steel (such as Benefit or Super Sheen) for extra protection and lustre.
