FOR HIGH POLISH STAINLESS STEEL

Note: High polish stainless steel surfaces should never 
come into contact with any abrasive cleaning brush, cloth or 
cleaning agent.

NORMAL CLEANING

Clean weekly or more often, as needed 
(especially high polishing surfaces)

To remove smudges and fingerprints:

Wipe surfaces with a quality Stainless Steel Cleaner/Polish. 
Apply using a soft non-abrasive cloth, wipe surfaces with 
stainless steel cleaner/polish.

IF SPOTS ARE STUBBORN OR IF YOU WISH TO TREAT A 
SCRATCH: synthetic, abrasive, general-purpose pads such 
as Scotch Brite are recommended. Apply the stainless steel 
cleaner/polish to the synthetic, abrasive pad and 
CAREFULLY rub out spot with cleaner/polish. 

Be sure to 

rub in the direction of the grain!

 Do not allow steel wool to 

come in contact with stainless steel. Steel particles can 
embed into the stainless steel surface and create rust.

To remove rust stains:

Wipe surfaces with CRES (available from Acorn) or 
equivalent cleaner. Use recommended solutions. Apply 
using a soft non-abrasive sponge. Rinse surfaces 
immediately after application. Always follow cleaner product 
directions provided. Afterwards, using a soft, non-abrasive 
cloth, wipe surfaces with stainless steel cleaner/polish.
