STAINLESS STEEL CARE AND MAINTENANCE
It is a common misconception that stainless steel will maintain its original factory shine without extra protection
from the consumer. Stainless steel will not stain, discolor, corrode or rust as fast as other types of steel, but it is
not fully staining or weather-proof. If it is not properly maintained, all grades of stainless steel can face surface
discoloration, corrosion and eventually rust. Any stainless steel that is exposed to the environment will require
attention and care throughout its life to ensure that it keeps its shine and structural integrity.
CLEANING THE STAINLESS STEEL AND POLISHING
1. Allow gas pizza oven to cool before cleaning/polishing stainless steel. Do not clean or polish your stainless
steel when the gill is in operation or still hot.
2.
To clean the stainless steel, wash off all dirt and debris from the steel with warm water. If you have tough
spots to clean, then a third-party degreaser product can be used.
3. Next, rinse and dry the steel thoroughly with a clean towel. Do not allow the steel to air dry as the standing
water can cause surface discoloration.
4. The last step is to protect to the unit with a good third-party polish. There are several third-party polishes
on the market that will help keep your gas pizza oven protected from the elements for a longer period. Most
of these polishes are toxic, so only use these on the exterior of the gas pizza oven. Follow instructions
provided on any third-party polish products. Apply the polish to a clean paper towel and wipe with the
direction of the grain in the stainless steel.
