Cleaning Stainless Steel Appliances

kgblais
Can you give some tips on keeping refrigerators and stoves clean and shinny.

Evette Rios
Wash surfaces with hot, soapy water (dishwashing liquid is fine) and a nonabrasive sponge, working both with and against the grain (yes, stainless steel has a grain) to lift buildup. Dry with a towel. Don’t be alarmed if appliances look duller than usual; you have just removed kitchen grease and residual cleaning products. Apply a layer of stainless-steel polish according to the package directions, wiping off any excess immediately. Bailey recommends Sheila Shine, which works as well as cream polish but requires much less elbow grease ($7 for a 10-ounce spray, $9.50 for one quart, www.sheilashine.com or 800-836-0362 for store locations). With a clean, dry towel, buff the polish into the surface, going with the grain, until it shines and the towel comes away dry. Let me know how it goes! - Evette
