MAINTENANCE
Stainless Steel Care and Cleaning
Stainless steel contains 70-80% iron, which will
rust. It also contains 12-30% chromium, which
forms an invisible passive lm over the steel
surface and acts as a shield against corrosion.
As long as the protective lm remains intact, the
metal will not corrode. However, if the lm is broken
or contaminated, outside elements can begin to
breakdown the steel and begin to form rust or
discoloration. To prevent rust and discoloration
on stainless steel, several important steps need
to be taken.
CAUTION: N e ver use s t e e l wool pads,
wire brushes or scrapers. Avoid
cleaning solutions that contain
alkaline or chloride.
