Cleaning stainless steel appliances
I have bought several items claiming to clean stainless steel appliance, but none have lived up to the hype. I have water stains that refuse to go away! Any solutions? Thanks!

Tishon Jan 28, 2018I've tried them all, spent hundreds of dollars in the process and they were all useless. The greatest and hands down best of the best is....SPRAY NINE. You can find it at Home Depot or Lowes. I use 3 clean white washcloths....two damp and one dry. I spray one of the damp cloths with Spray Nine and apply to the stainless steel and let dry. Once dry use the other damp cloth to wipe down, then dry and polish with the dry white cloth. Your stainless steel will look AMAZING & PERFECT every time.HelpfulReply
- Donna Creecyon Jan 29, 2018Great! I’ve never heard of Spray Nine but have to go to both Lowe’s and Home Depot tomorrow so will look for it. Sounds easy enough so will definitely try it. Thank, Tish!HelpfulReply

Debi53on Jan 29, 2018I sprinkle Bar Keeper's friend in my sink, dampen it and make a paste. I use a wet cloth, pick up some of the paste and "wash" my stainless with the paste. Use a clean wet cloth to rinse your piece. Keep rinsing your cloth. Then just dry with a soft clean cloth. I then use a spray counter top polish sprayed onto a clean cloth and "polish" my stainless. I only have to do this 2-3 times a year. In between, I just use a damp cloth to wipe of food particles or water marks and dry with a clean cloth. This is super inexpensive, gets everything off--grease, water spots, food particles, fingerprints, etc. and is fast and easy.HelpfulReply
- Donna Creecyon Jan 29, 2018Thank you! I’ll try this. Water spots are my worst problem, and this sounds like a good thing to try. I appreciate it!HelpfulReply
