Has anyone applied this film to stainless steel? I'm considering it for protection from scratches on a new SS refrigerator behind the handles.

Hello. Paint protection film is meant to cover the painted surfaces of the vehicle. It can be installed on stainless steel or chrome surfaces as well, however you will be able to tell there is something over that area. It will make the stainless steel or chrome look dull because of the reflectiveness and the film will not be virtually invisible like it is on painted surfaces. Normally, our customers do not install the paint protection film over chrome because of this. It's more of a personal preference on your part though. Thank you!

I have applied it to glass ( as a screen protector ) , stainless ( for erosion protection ) , and aluminum (also erosion protection . No complaints.

I've never noticed any of that but I would say use Bar Keepers Friend. It good for stainless steel.

Strange one. If it's new and never been used maybe its packing coating? You don't supply a lot of information, could be a host of issues, sulfur and sulfide compounds have detrimental effects on stainless steel surfaces, if you keep it in a hot humid condition, oxidation can occur, stainless steel doesn't mean it cant rust, in the right conditions it will! Just so many variables it's difficult to answer why!

We used Scratch-B-Gone on our Subzero refrigerator. It removed the surface scratches and the refrigerator looks like new. Surface scratches only required the buffing cream, not the whole procedure. I also called the company before buying the product. They answered my questions. http://restoreityourselfproducts.com/

It removed all of the build up on my refrigerator from oils transferred through the air, and just kitchen grime. I also was able to clean my stove front so it looked brand new with no drips, marks or spots. I did not use it on the top of the stove for residue there, that isn't stainless on my stove and requires a different type of cleaner. Hope that helps!

Hi,I use dish detergent. For stubborn use fine steel wool or SOS pads that have soap in them. The pads do not seem to scratch the surface but I have noticed that metal spoons, spatulas do. I use Pam cooking spray before I cook in this beautiful baker. We cooked a prime rib in it Christmas eve. Easy clean up for stainless steel.

Hey Fred, as I mentioned in my review I only recently used the product for the first time. It generally takes a while for painted-over rust to start bleeding through, so I cannot vouch for the permanency of the application. But the job turned out beautifully, and it was a good bet for me, because installing a new door would have been many times the cost of the Plasti-Kote. There are a few users who have uploaded to YouTube their Plasti-Kote jobs; perhaps you could reference one of them.

I took a "cling" I had made for the holidays (the shape of a Christmas tree covered with various stickers, 5" high) and cleaned a surface on my stainless steel refrigerator door. It did not stick, however when I moistened the back it did stick. I removed it after 2+ days.

I don't really know. I wonder if it might scratch the stainless steel or dull the finish. I'm sure the company could give you a better answer. I sure do like it on everything that I've used it on.

Have not used it on Stainless Steel. Have used it thus far on a number of brass pieces as well as a large oval brass table, and it outperformed all other products I have used (Brasso, Tarnish-X, etc.). I am planning to try it on a silver tea set but have not gotten around to that yet. I can tell you this however: given its performance thus far, I would not hesitate to buy more of it.Hope this helps at least somewhat.

I have never tried to use on stainless steel. However, from knowing a little bit from working around a auto detail shop using this on a stainless steel appliance would leave it streaked and I can tell you trying to get it wiped off to ale a shine I think would be very difficult. I believe I would check out using a push made for only stainless steel . A refg. Is painted much like an automobile and a polish that's made for enamel paint will only take the stainless sheen and destroy it. Stainless steel does not have clear coat applied to it nor does it any type of enamel and a wax such as jubilee will do nothing but ruin the sheen of stainless steel. There are polisher for stainless such as never dull. I have never tried to use on stainless steel.

This product was recommended by my custom cabinet maker. Although I have not tried it on my stainless steel, the directions read: "CLEANS, PROTECTS AND POLISHES all enameled, varnished and lacquered wood or metal surfaces, leather, linoleum, tile, glass, porcelain, masonite."

It works fine on brushed stainless -but am not familiar with the spot resistant stainless. I guess, if it's spot resistant - do you even need to polish it? It is the easiest, best product I have found - it used to take me a long time to clean my appliances - and now - it's a matter of minutes.

The no stick coating is thin and easily scratched on my MSC-400 too. I registered my unit at www.cuisnart.com where you can find out about parts. Mine came with a 3 year 'limited warranty' which covers defective parts. I doubt scratching is covered. It is impressively no-stick and I have not used anything harsher than a terry type dishcloth to clean. I have tried to be very careful cooking and stopped using the browning feature for concern about scratching bones etc. because the coating is very thin. I see outside is getting scuffed from ordinary use. I see in a crock pot cooking books that a removable plastic type liner is always used. That may be the way to go to deal with scratches if warranty does not cover.

I use barkeeper's friend on all the stainless steel in my kitchen. It's the only thing I've found so far that makes things look like new and doesn't leave streaks. It's great for sinks and pans, but kind of a pain to use on stoves, fridges, dishwashers since it's a powder that you have to wet, then rub all over, then rinse off. I just get it at the grocery store. It comes in a tube container like comet.

The label says that it cleans, shines, and protects stainless steel. Recommended for: kitchen appliance, countertops, sinks,range hoods, backsplashes and grills. I just used it on my SS spoone

If you do try it, use it in a inconspicuous spot before doing it on the whole fridge! It works wonders on my stainless steel sink. I apply it rub the sink with some paper towels, rinse the sink with water, then (dry) shine it up with a soft kitchen towel. That is where you might have a problem, not be able to rinse it off. There is a stainless steel spray that they make that could work better, called Hopes perfect stainless steel polish. That is for appliances. It is right here on Amazon
