Rust Removal

It is a common misconception that stainless steel does not rust. It does not stain, corrode, or rust as easily as ordinary steel (it stains less), but it is not stain-proof. If not properly protected and maintained, it can corrode, pit, and discolor.

Because salt will accelerate rust and corrosion, side burner owners who live near the beach need to be dili- gent in maintaining their stainless steel hardware. You

Important need to clean and polish your stainless steel frequently, apply a protectant, and ensure water does not collect and puddle.

Periodically clean exterior stainless steel surfaces with WD-40 or Sheila Shine and wipe down with a dry cloth or paper towel until surface is free of rust. If there is significant rust or corrosion, use a Scotch-Brite scrubber.

Both of these products will act as a surface protectant and help resist smudges, stains, and rust.

Although nitric acid (also called aqua fortis) can be effec- tive for rust removal, it is a highly corrosive chemical. Be- cause of the potential for injury or damage to your stain-

Caution less steel, we do not recommend using nitric acid.

Burner rack

The burner rack can all be removed for cleaning and is dishwasher safe.

Use a solution equal parts detergent and hot water just as you would for any cooking equipment. A stiff wire brush or steel wool may also be helpful in removing grime and food deposits.

Covering Your Side Burner

When not in use and after cooling, cover your side burner with our canvas cover. (See your local Cal Flame dealer for details.) The cover will help protect your side burner from detrimental effects of weather and environmental pollutants. Never put a cover on a hot side burner. Allow the side burner to cool before covering.
