How to Polish Stainless Steel

Stainless steel is aptly named―it rarely has to be polished. And it's the only metal that can go in the dishwasher, as long as the entire piece is stainless. Do not put a sterling-handled knife with a stainless blade in the dishwasher.Useful Tips
Waxy polishes can leave a film on stainless steel, so use a nonwaxy stainless steel polish or phosphate-free dish soap, like Palmolive. Do not finish a teapot with a waxy protectant. Heat will melt it, and you'll have rank-tasting, gummy tea.Next: How to Polish Brass
