Cleaning Stainless Steel Surfaces
To remove normal dirt, grease and product residue from stainless steel that operates at LOW temperature, use ordinary
soap and water (with or without detergent) applied with a sponge or cloth. Dry thoroughly with a clean cloth.
To remove grease and food splatter, or condensed vapors, that have BAKED on the equipment, apply cleanser to a damp
cloth or sponge and rub cleanser on the metal in the direction of the polishing lines on the metal. Rubbing cleanser, as
gently as possible, in the direction of the polished lines will not mar the finish of the stainless steel. NEVER RUB WITH A
CIRCULAR MOTION. Soil and burnt deposits which do not respond to the above procedure can usually be removed by
rubbing the surface with SCOTCH-BRITE scouring pads or STAINLESS scouring pads. DO NOT USE ORDINARY STEEL
WOOL, as any particles left on the surface will rust and further spoil the appearance of the finish. NEVER USE A WIRE
BRUSH, STEEL SCOURING PADS (EXCEPT STAINLESS), SCRAPER, FILE OR OTHER STEEL TOOLS. Surfaces
which are marred collect dirt more rapidly and become more difficult to clean. Marring also increases the possibility of
corrosive attack. Refinishing may then be required.
To remove heat tint – Darkened areas sometimes appear on stainless steel surfaces where the area has been subjected
to excessive heat. These darkened areas are caused by thickening of the protective surface of the stainless steel and are
not harmful. Heat tint can normally be removed by the foregoing, but tint which does not respond to this procedure calls
for a vigorous scouring in the direction of the polish lines, using SCOTCH-BRITE scouring pads or a STAINLESS scouring
pad in combination with a powered cleanser. Heat tint action may be lessened by not applying, or by reducing heat to
equipment during slack periods.
