If necessary to scrape stainless steel to remove encrusted materials, soak the
area with hot towels to loosen the material, then use a wooden or nylon
spatula or scraper.
DDoo nnoott uussee
a metal knife, spatula, or any other metal tool
to scrape stainless steel. Every three months give your hood a thorough
cleaning. On painted surfaces, use a new coat of wax. A good wax cleaner,
available at either a grocery or hardware store will do both jobs at once. On
stainless steel surfaces, use a good stainless steel cleaner and polish.
Renewing the Enamel Finish
If discoloration occurs, you should thoroughly polish the finish on your hood
to renew its gloss and luster and to remove any grease residue which may
have a yellowing effect. Use any good enamel polish, refrigerator polish, or
automotive polish.
