Stainless Steel Appliances – Secrets To A Shiny, Smear-free Finish

Do you have stainless steel appliances?
Are they “perfectly clean”?

If you are a bit dis-enchanted with how your stainless steel looks, even after you have tried the e-cloth® products on them, I might be able to help.

I just got off the phone with the ceo of e-cloth/tad-green here in the US. He was able to answer some questions we have received from a couple of our customers that were not able to get the “smears” off their stainless steel fridge and dishwasher.

In the last 5+ years that e-cloth® has been available in America, e-cloth® has always been able to clean any stainless steel appliance, even the most stubborn. In two cases, they found that there was a defect in the stainless steel and the appliance company sent them a new front.  And in one other case, they didn’t remove the plastic film that came with the new fridge and the chemicals used to clean the fridge “melted” the film permanently into the surface.

How To Clean A VERY Stubborn, “Smeary” Appliance:

You stainless steel is “smeary” because of one of three reasons.

Reason One:
Tons of previous chemical has built up and had kinda created a “shell” on the surface.  In extreme cases, this build will actually start to turn yellowish.

Reason Two: An oil based polish has been used and created a stubborn oily residue that needs to be removed.

Reason Three: There is a protective coating that needs to be removed (check to see if there is a film that needs to be peeled off)

*In either case, you need to use an E-cloth General Purpose cloth (not the stainless steel pack cloth – this is better for maintenance). -Wet with the general purpose e-cloth with water
-Wring out excess water
-Work in four inch circles, with 2 or 3 fingers and the e-cloth.
-Follow up behind with a *dry* e-cloth (use a polish e-cloth if you have one or a new general purpose cloth).
You begin to notice the shiny stainless steel appear!

Tips:
-It may take quite a bit of “elbow grease”.
-You don’t have to conquer the whole appliance at once.
-Once you get it all clean, it will be SIMPLE to maintain. Just use a damp polish cloth and quickly wipe as needed.
