Stainless Steel Woes?





For the first time in my life I have stainless steel appliances. At first I had a love/hate relationship with them. Love the shine, the measured water feature on the fridge and a dishwasher that works really, really good. Hate the drips, fingerprints, spots...get the picture? I tried Windex, because what doesn't Windex clean? The answer: Stainless steel. It cleans it, but leaves horrible streaks. I was on the hunt for a streak free cleaner and I found it! Baby Oil! Okay, it doesn't actually clean, but it polishes my stainless beautifully! First, clean with the Windex, then put some baby oil on a white wash cloth, {a little goes a long way} then polish away. Ta Da! Gorgeous streak free, fingerprint free, spot free stainless. Until someone walks by and touches it of course. But the oil lasts awhile so it isn't hard to polish it with a dry cloth as needed.
