Stainless steel appliances look amazing when they’re clean. When they get a little streaky, smudged or just plain dirty, though, they aren’t quite as impressive. It can difficult to keep stainless steel clean, especially if you have kids. Sometimes it seems like you’ve just finished cleaning your appliances and they’re already covered in fingerprints again.
Luckily for you, there are ways to clean your stainless steel appliances and keep them looking nice. Most of these tips require only materials you already have around your house. Collect a few unusual cleaning supplies, a microfiber cloth and get started!
1. Baking soda
The simplest solution for a dirty stainless steel sink is a box of baking soda. That’s right! You don’t need any special brand-name cleaning products. Just sprinkle a thin layer of baking soda into the sink and scrub with a damp sponge (or an old toothbrush). When you’re done scrubbing, just rinse everything down the drain, and enjoy your shiny sink.

2. Vinegar & olive oil
The hardest part about keeping your stainless steel appliances clean is getting rid of fingerprints and smudges. A great way to avoid this problem is to spray your appliance with vinegar, and then wipe it clean. Next, pour a little olive oil onto a clean cloth and rub with the grain on your appliance. Finish by buffing your appliance with a clean, dry cloth. This should help prevent new smudges while wiping away old ones.
