Cleaning stainless steel
Commercial grades of stainless steel are susceptible to rusting. It is important that you properly
care for the stainless steel surfaces of your ice machine and bin to avoid the possibility of rust or
corrosion. Use the following recommended guidelines for keeping your stainless steel looking like
new:
1. Clean the stainless steel thoroughly once a week. Clean frequently to avoid build-up of
hard, stubborn stains. Also, hard water stains left to sit can weaken the steel's corrosion
resistance and lead to rust. Use a nonabrasive cloth or sponge, working with, not across, the
grain.
2. Don't use abrasive tools to clean the steel surface. Do not use steel wool, abrasive sponge
pads, wire brushes or scrapers to clean the steel. Such tools can break through the "passivation"
layer - the thin layer on the surface of stainless steel that protects it from corrosion.
3. Don't use cleaners that use chlorine or chlorides. Don't use chlorine bleach or products like
Comet to clean the steel. Chlorides break down the passivation layer and can cause rusting.
4. Rinse with clean water. If chlorinated cleansers are used, you must thoroughly rinse the
surface with clean water and wipe dry immediately.
5. Use the right cleaning agent. The table below lists the recommended cleaning agents for
common stainless steel cleaning problems:
