4. Treat your water.
Though this is not always practical,
softening hard water can do much to reduce
deposits. There are certain fi lters that can be
installed to remove distasteful and corrosive
elements. To insure proper water treatment,
call a treatment specialist.
5. Keep your food equipment clean.
Use alkaline, alkaline chlorinated or non-
chloride cleaners at recommended strength.
Clean frequently to avoid build-up of hard
stubborn stains. If you boil water in stainless
steel equipment, remember the single
most likely cause of damage is chlorides
in the water. Heating cleaners that contain
chlorides have a similar effect.
6. Rinse, rinse, rinse.
If chlorinated cleaners are used, rinse
and wipe equipment and supplies dry
immediately. The sooner you wipe off
standing water, especially when it contains
cleaning agents, the better. After wiping
equipment down, allow it to air dry; oxygen
helps maintain the stainless steel's passivity
fi lm.
Review
1. Stainless steels rust when passivity (fi lm-shield) breaks down as a result of scrapes, scratches,
deposits and chlorides.
2. Stainless steel rust starts with pits and cracks.
3. Use the proper tools. Do not use steel pads, wire brushes or scrapers to clean stainless steel.
4. Use non-chlorinated cleaners at recommended concentrations. Use only chloride-free cleaners.
5. Soften your water. Use fi lters and softeners whenever possible.
6. Wipe off cleaning agent(s) and standing water as soon as possible. Prolonged contact causes
eventual problems.
To learn more about chloride-stress corrosion and how to prevent it, contact the equipment manufacturer
or cleaning material supplier.

7. Never use hydrochloric acid (muriatic
acid) on stainless steel.
8. Regularly restore/passivate stainless
steel.
