Before you begin, it’s important to understand that stainless steel surfaces vary in finish — some are polished and mirror-like, while others are brushed with a matte texture. This determines which method will work best.
For brushed stainless steel, a microfiber cloth and a non-abrasive metal polish are ideal. Apply a small amount of polish and gently rub in the direction of the grain. Always use light, even pressure to maintain the metal’s texture.
For polished stainless steel, use a jewelry polishing cloth or specialized stainless steel cleaner. Work in gentle, circular motions to buff out minor scratches. Deep scratches may require professional care to ensure the surface remains even and reflective.
Finally, wipe the surface clean with a soft, lint-free cloth to remove any residue. This not only improves shine but also helps protect against further wear.
