How to clean them? The word on the street is that Pledge does an awesome job. And in fact, I’ve used it. It’s true. Shiny, easy to use, no need to rinse. What’s not to love? Well, for starters the petroleum. Mmmm… Just want I want covering the surface of my fridge. And then there’s butane and methane too. More lovely additives to my kitchen. Neurotoxins. Respiratory disruptors. Ok. So maybe that’s not what I want in my kitchen.
The good news? Vinegar does the job just as well, and again - no need to rinse. Make sure if it’s satin finished stainless you clean with the grain of the finish, to preserve the life of the finish. If you’re one of the ones who can’t stand the vinegar smell - even for the 3 minutes it takes to dissipate - add a few drops of a potent essential oil. Tea tree oil will do the trick nicely, and give you the added benefit of inhibiting the growth of mold, bacteria, and viruses.
