Works for me Wednesday, cleaning tip.

 

I'm participating in We Are THAT Family's 'Works For Me Wednesday' and this week's theme is cleaning tips.  

I have a quick and simple tip about how I clean and polish our stainless steel kitchen appliances.  When we first got them, it drove me crazy how every little hand print and smudge showed up.  And many of the recommended cleaners I tried left ugly streaks.  Then I found out what store employees use to keep stainless steel appliances looking snazzy:  baby oil.  And because a showroom floor and my kitchen get roughly the same amount of traffic, I decided to try it.  You only need a couple of drops on a soft, lint-free cloth.  It's really worked for me so I hope you'll give it a try.

I had not heard this and will try asap. I HATE the smudges we get all over the front of our fridge. Thanks!

Awesome - I'll totally try this! My oven looks awful because I hang a dish rag from it and it gets tons of water drips. :) Thanks for sharing!

We also have stainless steel appliances and I struggled to keep them looking nice. I hate the 'stainless steel cleaners' you can buy..they totally streak. I started using olive oil to clean mine and works like a charm. Baby oil...mmm...I'll have to try that. I'd rather smell like baby oil after I clean rather than olive oil:) Thanks for the tip!!
