In this guide from Andrea Jean Cleaning on YouTube, she will reveal the best methods for removing scratches from stainless steel, helping you restore your appliances and surfaces to their original state. Whether you’re dealing with minor scuffs or deeper grooves, this step-by-step solutions will have your stainless steel looking as good as new!
Before starting, test the stainless steel and make sure that it’s uncoated using Barry’s scratch b-gone stainless steel kit. If the strip turns black, then you’re good to go. Now, every kit has four pads, from the least abrasive to the most abrasive. Start with the least abrasive pad first by hooking it to the holder. Once you have hooked the pad, put some of the solution right into the pad, then start going in the direction of the grain. Make about eight to ten strokes, back and forth. After this, set it aside and wipe it clean using a microfiber towel.
Check if the area has still some scratches. If it does, go ahead and repeat the process. You can also change the pad if you feel like you need a stronger abrasive to remove the scratches.
