Hood Cleaning
Stainless steel is one of the easiest
materials to keep clean. Occasional
care will help preserve its fine appearance.
Cleaning tips:
Hot water with soap or detergent is all that usually needed.
Follow all cleaning by rinsing with clear water. Wipe dry with a clean, soft cloth to avoid water
marks.
For discolorations or deposits that persist, use a non-scratching household cleanser or
stainless steel polishing powder with water and a soft cloth.
For stubborn cases, use a plastic scouring pad or soft bristle brush together with cleanser
and water. Rub lightly in direction of polishing lines or "grain" of the stainless finish. Avoid
using too much pressure which may mar the surface.
DO NOT allow deposits remain for long period of time.
DO NOT use ordinary steel wool or steel brush. Small bits of steel may adhere to the surface
causing rust.
DO NOT allow salt solutions, disinfectants, bleaches, or cleaning compound to remain in
contact with stainless steel for extended period. Many of these compounds contain
chemicals which may be harmful. Rinse with water after exposure and wipe dry with a clean
cloth.
Painted surfaces should be cleaned with warm water and mild detergent only.
