cleaning staintless steel cooker hoods GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

[Codmamma]

ok so i used ecloths but they are still streaky
why
hel p i keep wlakign bakc in tot he kithcen to asses their streakiness
trues speciual cleaner made em worse

baby oil
a use for it at last

YOu need to polish it with a bit of baby oil, I think. Haven't tried it, as only stainless steel thing we own is a toaster, but recommended by Saint Anthea, and have seen it mentioned elsewhere before that.

my cleaner gets through bucketsful of baby oil cleaning my brushed seel bits. to the point where my hands slide off the handles of my kitchen drawers - euw.

steel

but i think there are still greasy bits on it that make the clths tick
ok baby oil GOD knows where that is
havd eoms mother massage oil left fom pg?

Is it mirror polished steel or brushed?

If it is brushed then Bar Keeper's Friend is fantastic (used along the grain of the steel), however don't use it on polished steel as it will scratch it.

hmm how do i know

ther are lines on it

I think baby oil would attract dust? How about a glass cleaner applied with one of those e cloths? I have given up all hope of my stainless steel (but it's not it's some other metal) fridge freezer ever looking good but that is the best I have come up with so far. I use Nilglass from Lakeland btw

but its crap?

Nilglass? No I love it (for my windows anyway)

oh god

Lakeland do something else which is a specialist stainless steel and chrome cleaner/polisher. It's absolutely fantastic and I use it all the time on our range/splashback and hood.

A good wash over with soapy water, rinse, dry with ecloth, polish with a just a little baby oil.

If you can be bothered - which I can't.

OK we'll have to differ on that! If you think it is grease making it streaky, how about cleaning it with one of those degreaser sprays first (or some home-made version if you prefer!) and then using the ecloth afterwards?

what posesssed you to have a s/s spalsh back

Gentle rub with soap and brillo pad
Firm rub with e cloth
Finish off with wads of the roll that farmers use to dry cows' teats after milking (bought for chanson from agricultural cooperative.)
Dry teatowel works just as well though.

Looks good and we didn't want tiles as the worktops are granite with a granite upstands too. Guess I'm a clean-ish cook...as I don;t find it too hard to maintain...or maybe the lakeland stuff is just fab!

the roll that farmers use to dry cows' teats?

arf

lol

BAR KEEPERS FRIEND - your only man!
sainsburys do it as well as lakeland.

and the HG grease away from lakeland helps to, but it doesnt buff up as well as bar keeper

windolene works for me

relaly?
i have that

So why is Windolene ok and not Nilglass

mayeb theya re the same
ok off to try em now

The guy who fitted my kitchen said to use baby oil bit of a waste really but then if it works.....
