Polish Stainless Steel with Baby Oil
The Problem
Stainless appliances show every fingerprint and spot. Clean them and they're covered again by dinner.
The Hack
Clean with soapy water first. Put 3-4 drops baby oil on microfiber cloth, buff WITH the grain.
Why It Works
Mineral oil fills microscopic pores creating a barrier that repels fingerprints and water.
Pro Tips
- Always wipe with the grain
- Works on all stainless appliances
- Lasts about a week per application
- Baby oil won't go rancid like olive oil
