STAINLESS STEEL CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Stainless steel is a corrosion resistant chromium/nickel alloy steel that is both durable as well as strong with an outstanding luster. The goal of your
cleaning and maintenance routine should be to keep the stainless steel’s protective chromium oxide layer intact. This is what
prevents corrosion.
Contrary to popular belief, stainless steel is NOT rustproof, especially in the environment of a swimming pool. Chlorine, bromine, some fertilizers
and other elements are extremely caustic chemicals for stainless steel. These chemicals combined with heat and humidity greatly increase the
corrosiveness of these chemicals. Regular cleaning is the best way to prevent corrosion and add years of enjoyment to your Bull stainless steel
products.
