Drying the surface reduces water spots and streaks. Avoid steel wool and harsh abrasive pads that create irregular scratches or leave metal particles. A stainless-steel cleaner may help remove fingerprints and restore an even appearance. Chloride-containing chemicals should not remain on the surface because they may contribute to corrosion.

Key considerations

  • sanitation
  • heat resistance
  • corrosion resistance
  • nonporous metal
  • directional finish
  • integrated sinks
