I can't seem to find a good product that won't streak. Any suggestions? Thanks!
 
I use a product called Bar Keeper's Friend. I use it on my All Clad pots and pans and in the sink. It won't scratch and gets anything off with a little elbow grease. For stainless appliances I use Weiman polish.
 
For our stainless steel sink we use a powder called cameo.
 

For my appliances I use WD40, recommended by the guy who installed our appliances several years ago. haven't found anything that works as well or as cheap. I spray it on one microfiber cloth and use a clean one to polish it off.
 
I use Weiman's Ceramic Glass top cleaner. I discovered it one time after cleaning my stove top. I had some left on my wash cloth and decided to wipe down the controls on my stove because it was a little greasy. I was pleasantly surprised how well it cleaned it up. It has a small amount of abrasive in it, but it doesn't scratch. Cleans my stainless wonderfully. It doesn't leave any streaks and leaves the stainless sparkly and shiny clean.
 
Sheila Shine from Ace Hardware. :love:

It's from Australia, and is a little pricey at $10.99, but just a tiny little bit works so well.

I don't have appliances, but I second the recommendations for BarKeepers Friend for All-Clad. It works beautifully.
 
I've discovered the wonders of Bar Keeper's Friend recently. The gas stove has two hot spots on it, so pretty much anytime I cook with my skillet, everything burns to those two spots. So about once a week, I scrub it down with the stuff. It works pretty good on the stove too.
 
When I purchased my cookware, they told me to use Bar Keepers Friend. It is a powder...so I put a small amount of water in the pan and mix it with the cleaner, let it set for a few minutes and it shines them up beautifully. It is cheap and works great! :goodvibes
 
I use plain old baking soda! It works wonderful and is CHEAP!!!!

DH discovered that Pledge works well for polishing stainless steel refrigerator doors!
 
I don't have appliances so I use Cameo in my stainless cookware.
 
I love that for the sink but can't find it any more. I now use BarKeepers Friend.

We got it at wal-mart; Hate going to wal-mart, but that happens to be where it was purchased.
 
A coworker gave me a bottle of Steel Glo to try when I bought my stainless steel pots and pans for Christmas. I had BarKeepers Friend too, and I love the Steel Glo WAY more than than the other stuff.

We use it on everything now.

My husband. He can't stand spots and will just sit and work them out all on his own.

Anyone want to rent him? :lmao:
