Correct maintenance
inless steel gets dirty but can be cleaned easily, the important thing is not to attack the surface layer spontaneously passivated by atmospheric oxygen. Therefore, to keep the steel clean and in good condition, do not forget to clean the surface after use with water and a neutral liquid detergent, using a soft, clean sponge, rinsing well and drying with a soft, preferably warm, cloth. This will prevent the appearance of unsightly halos on the surface and the formation of lime deposits. Periodically or in the case of stubborn stains, use specific products for cleaning steel, following the instructions on the product label regarding dosage and method of use. If scrubbing is necessary during washing, the movement should be parallel to the direction of the satin finish to avoid visible scratching of the surface. For persistent stains use warm vinegar.
Unsuitable products
For proper cleaning, products containing chlorides must not be used, especially those containing hydrochloric acid; products based on halides; products based on hydrogen peroxide; bleaches based on hypochlorous acid; aggressive products containing acids; detergents containing abrasive powder; creams for cleaning steel; silver cleaning products; detergents whose chemical composition is unknown; scouring pads, brushes or abrasive pads; rough cloths or rough paper; tools that have previously cleaned other metals or alloys; do not apply products directly on surfaces to be cleaned.
