CARE GUIDE FOR STAINLESS STEEL
Stainless steel is not adversely affected by normal household use but because of it’s
reputation for durability, it is sometimes assumed to be indestructible, and therefore
subjected to misuse or even abuse. Care should be taken to avoid such ‘abnormal use’.
CLEANING MATERIALS
DO USE
• A soft cloth or synthetic sponge.
• Soap, or mild household detergent (Handy Andy).
• Diluted ammonia in warm water.
• A nylon bristle brush.
• Cleaners labelled “Suitable for stainless steel”.
DO NOT USE
• Acids.
• Coarse abrasive cleaning powders.
• Metallic scourers, steel wool or metal scrapers.
• Wire brushes or emery paper.
• So called ‘silver cleaners’.
• Kitchen scourers/foam pads.
CLEANING PROCEDURE
• Frequent cleaning is recommended rather than an occasional aggressive clean.
• Routine cleaning will preserve the corrosion resistance and appearance of the
stainless steel for many years.
• Clean the stainless steel as often as necessary (i.e. when noticeably dull or dirty) and
use the simplest cleaning method that will effectively do the job.
• Use clean water, or a mild detergent solution applied with a soft cloth or sponge.
Rinse well and wipe dry.
