Is there a good cleaner for stainless steel appliances?

All the appliances in my kitchen are stainless steel, and I hate how they look becuase every time I wash them they are full of streaks. Is there a good cleaner made for stainless steel that won't leave streaks?

1. I love Zep Stainless Steel Cleaner. It doesn't leave streaks, it is a foam on easy application and it leaves a protective coating that resists fingerprints and food from sticking on the surface. I even use it on my stainless cooktop and it gets off burned on food, too. I get it at the Home Depot and a big can lasts a long time.


2. my mother in law swears that WD-40 cleans everything


3. believe it or not, windex works well


4. i got best result using stain shine try it its good


5. Stainless Steel Appliance Cleaning

   Stainless steel kitchen appliances look best when they're clean and shiny. To clean tough stains and cooking grease, and give them a dazzling shine, try the same detergent you would use when washing the dishes. One formulated to cut grease works especially well.This also works well for general kitchen cleaning.Waterless hand soap also works great as a polish, simply rub on, and polish - no rinsing.=)



6. I like the Zep line of products but most commercial places I have worked in used Barkeepers Friend.


7. WD40 is great for cleaning stainless steel anything & for some reason it protects it from finger prints & things so you won't have to clean it as often. WD40 is great for thousands of other uses too, it can remove stickers, dried paint from glass, wipes away crayon & wax, lubricates squeeky parts, spray it on your lawnmower or bike before you put it away for winter & it'll come out in spring rust free.... so you'll get more than your moneys worth from a small tin.
