Idon’t know about you, but my stainless steel appliances are always getting smudgey and dirty and riddled with hard water stains. Yuck! I love the way stainless steel looks, but keeping it clean used to be a pain. At first I tried the olive oil on the paper towel trick. And while it did remove smudges, it also left an icky sticky residue all over my appliances that capture even more dirt and dust. No go. So after a little bit of hunting around I found a great solution for how to clean stainless steel the fast and easy way – and it actually WORKS.
I may be a bit… “lazy” when it comes to deep cleaning department. Don’t get me wrong, I’m constantly wiping things down and sanitizing and cleaning up. But reeeaallllyyy getting in their and scrubbing? It usually takes me a while to get around to that.

A couple of weeks ago I was gearing up to reveal our kitchen makeover and I realized that every stainless steel surface in our house was a grimy, gummy, smudgey mess. Not good for beautiful glamor photos! As you can see by the following pictures, my stainless steel needed a little help. AKA tons of water spots on the brand-new faucet:
Hard water stains, drips of old food, puppy nose prints, and general sludge on the dishwasher:
Note the lovely streaking towards the bottom and bits of actual food stuck to the front. Gross.
Smudges from here to Russia and back, all up and down the fridge handles and doors:
And finally, smatterings of food long since consumed, drips of pasta water, more puppy nose prints, and general slime and grease covering every inch of my oven:
Totally awesome right? Do those sights look familiar? Never fear! You too can have gorgeous beautiful clean stainless steel in just a few easy steps that actually work!
