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.
To clean the stainless steel you will want to wash off all dirt and debris from the steel with warm
water. If you have tough spots to clean, then a degreaser such as Formula 409 can be used.
2. Next, you will want to 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.
3. The last thing you want to do is to protect to the unit with a good polish. There are several
polishes on the market that work great (Barkeepers Friend Polish and Stainless Steel Magic are
a few) and will help keep your grill protected from the elements for a longer period of time. Most
of these polishes are toxic, so you would only want to use these on the exterior of the grill (not
your cooking grates or flavorizers).
a. You will want to apply the polish to a clean paper towel and wipe with the direction of the
grain in the stainless steel.
b. There should be no excess liquid on the surface but it is acceptable for it to be a little oily,
as that will dissipate.
4. If you have a situation where your grill has developed surface discoloration or surface rust, then
you need to clean the unit as stated above and use a good polish (Barkeepers Friend Polish, or
Instant Rust Out) to remove the spots.
a. Each of these polishing agents take about 30 seconds to work and then you simply wipe
off the product (if needed use a soft Scotch-Brite pad to remove any tough spots.) If you
used Barkeepers Friend, then you do not need to do anything further. If you used Instant
Rust Out (or another cleaning agent), you would want to wipe it down with fresh water
and dry it off again with a clean towel and then coat the steel with a layer of WD-40 or
another Stainless Polishing solution, which will act as a surface protectant for the steel.

IMPORTANT:
Be sure not to have your grill on when using any flammable
product, such as WD-40. These products are extremely flammable in their
aerosol form.
Environmental Factors that can affect your Grill
Mother Nature is a wonderful thing but unfortunately she can be tough on outdoor appliances. There are
several usual causes for surface discoloration and corrosion on your stainless steel outdoor equipment:
1) Mortar (which contains lime) from the island assembly process, has rested on the unit for a
pro-longed period of time and the unit was not cleaned quickly
2) Pool chemicals were splashed onto the grill (chlorine and acid will cause very quick problems) and
the unit was not cleaned off quickly
3) Hard water from sprinklers (chlorine in the water) was allowed to sit on the unit
4) Salt from the ocean air/water was allowed to rest upon the grill for a prolonged period of time before
being cleaned (beach owners must be diligent in maintaining their outdoor stainless equipment)
5) Dust, or rust, from other metals found it ways onto the grill and was left on for an extended period of
time.
6) Organic matters (such as certain types of food) might have gotten onto the surface of the grill and it
was then covered. With high humidity and low oxygen, corrosion will start to take place.
7) Sprays and cleaning solutions containing alkaline, lime, acid, salt might have been left on the grill
surface un-dried.
