When you buy stainless steel doors, you don't expect it to rust. In fact, most warranties don't cover rust. However, search the Internet and you'll find tons of questions and complaints about rust on these manufacturers. You'll also find that mostmanufacturers are unwilling to help. There are a few things you can do.
Instructions
1.Dip a moist, soft toothbrush in a box of baking soda. Very gently, in the direction of the stainless grain, rub back and forth on the appliance. The mild abrasive action will get into the grain without damaging it. If you're a bit neurotic like a certain eHow author, you can use your finger (instead of a toothbrush) for even better results. But you must have more patience, or OCD. Or, even better: both.
2.Rinse the baking soda off with a warm, damp (not wet) paper towel. Dry thoroughly. You may see or smell rust on the paper towel or toothbrush. Great! That means it's working!
3.Finally, dry the appliance thoroughly. You don't want to leave any water that could cause more rust. You won't believe the difference!
4.To really see the difference, start with one half of the appliance: one refrigerator door, or the top part of the oven, etc. Step back and admire your work. I was astounded at how new the side I did turned out. Drop me a comment and let me know how YOURS turns out!
Tips & Warnings
Keep appliances clean. Grease and grime provide moisture that makes rust reappear in a heartbeat.
