How do you remove water/food stains on a stainless steel range top? Thanks, Dianne

A friend who cleans houses for a living said they clean stainless steel appliances with olive oil on a soft cloth. Cleans and shines it up. I've tried it and it does work. Not sure about the stains though.

You might try Bon Ami- it is a scouring powder but doesn't scratch.

I wonder if baking soda (used with a damp sponge) would work? It works just like a 'Magic Eraser'!

Thanks, Friends! I tried everything--vinegar, baking soda, olive oil. I must have "heat stains" or water stains (we have hard water here) and they will not come up, even though we wipe spills immediately. I'll keep trying anything! Dianne

What about Barkeeper's Friend?

Have you tried placing a cloth over the stains and saturating it with vinegar (leave over night)? This helps with hard water stains around faucets. I hate to say it but the stains around my burners on stainless steel seem permanently cooked on. Lets choose to see them as a reminder to be grateful for all the meals we've cooked and eaten.
