Weiman Stainless Steel Cleaner & Polish Aerosol, 12 oz.

Product Information

One of the best options for stainless steel appliances is the Affresh Stainless Steel Cleaning Spray. Q. What is a natural cleaner for stainless steel?

We tested the cleanser on aluminum and stainless steel cookware. It easily removed grease and rust stains with a soft sponge. For the cooked-on food and stains, we did have to make a paste with the cleanser and use a nylon brush. It took a bit of elbow grease to scrub off the most stubborn stains, but they eventually came off. It also cleans soap scum off bathroom tiles and porcelain tubs with ease. However, the cleanser is abrasive and not meant for soft surfaces. Cleaners formulated for ovens and outdoor grills are much too abrasive to use on stainless steel appliances and cookware. These cleaners are specially formulated to remove food bits that have been burned onto your grill at extremely high temperatures. That requires more cleaning power than the typical messes on the stainless steel appliances in your kitchen. The stainless steel used to construct grills is made to withstand a lot more force than the polished surfaces of your appliances.

Next, we determined how easy it was to apply and remove the product and whether it left behind any residue. As for the scent, most of the cleaners had minimal fragrance. However, some left behind a refreshing, clean scent. FAQs Durable, impact-resistant stainless steel is a popular material for kitchen appliances, and you can keep it looking its best with Affresh Stainless Steel Cleaning Spray. It comes in a 12-ounce aerosol can for minimal runoff on vertical surfaces, like those of your fridge, dishwasher, and oven. The nonabrasive formula rapidly cuts through dirt, grime, and oils, so a simple spray-and-wipe application gets the job done. And the shiny-clean results are likely to last since the spray leaves a light protective polish to help prevent buildup. Natural stainless steel cleaners may include coconut oil, lavender, soybean oil, or canola oil. These cleaners tend to be less effective than commercial chemical cleaners on heavy-duty grime, oil, and stains, but folks who favor them find they work just fine for regular cleaning around the house. We found that Affresh’s cleaner was perfect for removing fingerprints and light soils on stainless steel surfaces. It was easy to apply and remove while leaving a streak-free, clean finish. We also found that it resisted fingerprints moderately well, although it is not intended to be a polish. However, we noticed that the stainless steel cleaner left surfaces looking a tad darker.

Grilling may produce delicious fare, but it can be a greasy business. CLR Spot-Free Stainless Steel cleaner can get your grill so clean, it gleams in the sun. The 12-ounce aerosol spray canister dispenses voluminous foam that clings to vertical surfaces, avoiding drippy runoff. CLR is tough on grease as well as dirt, dust, grime, and water stains, and while it’s great for the grill, it can also be used on other stainless steel surfaces, such as kitchen appliances. It brings a streak-free shine and adds a protective layer that resists fingerprints and other oils.

While many household recipes & all-purpose cleaners remove fingerprints, our products helps prevent future fingerprints once applied. How do I remove marks from stainless steel? Appliances like refrigerators and ovens need gentle, non-abrasive cleaners to avoid scratches and help preserve their protective finish. If you want to make your own homemade stainless steel cleaner, baking soda is a gentle abrasive, so it's great for cleaning stainless steel sinks and cookware and even for removing coffee residue from inside a stainless steel thermal carafe or travel mug. But for the routine maintenance of stainless steel appliance fronts, we prefer products formulated specifically for that job, like the ones we recommend. They are non-abrasive and often provide a protective coating to help keep appliances cleaner for longer. Stainless steel cleaners come in several forms, including powders, creams, sprays and aerosols, and wipes. We do like the convenience of the wipes but found that the excess product on them was way more than necessary for cleaning small areas. Although it did a great job removing grease, fingerprints, and cooked-on debris, we did need to buff the surface with a microfiber towel to remove excess cleaner and streaks. With the wide range of stainless steel cleaners available, you can find both eco-conscious green cleaners as well as tough and traditional products that rely on chemical ingredients.
