TO REMOVE HEAT TINT

Darkened areas sometimes appear on the stainless steel surface where the area has been
subjected to excessive heat. These darkened areas are caused by thickening of the protective
surface of the stainless steel and are not harmful. Heat tint can normally be removed by the
foregoing, but tint which does not respond to this procedure calls for a vigorous scouring in the
direction of the polish lines using

SCOTCH-BRITE

scouring pads or a

STAINLESS

scouring

pad in combination with a powdered cleanser. Heat tint action may be lessened by not applying
or by reducing heat to equipment during slack periods.
