VERY IMPORTANT INFORMATION
CARE AND PROTECTION OF STAINLESS STEEL SURFACES
Your BBQ features Stainless Steel components, using moderate grade Stainless Steels. All Stainless Steel
grades require a level of care and protection to retain their appearance. Stainless Steels are not immune
to corrosion and neither are they maintenance-free, contrary to popular public perception. Even the
highest marine grades of Stainless Steel require frequent cleaning with fresh water to avoid oxidation and
other corrosive issues.
Modern tastes dictate that your BBQ features Stainless Steel with a brushed finish. This brushed finish is
attained by running Stainless Steel sheets through an abrasive process that removes the mirror finish and
leaves the brushed finish. Brushed-finish Stainless Steel requires frequent cleaning and care, to maintain
its quality of appearance. Without adequate care it is realistic to expect that it will show signs of corrosion
in time.
Stainless Steel is definitely not a maintenance-free material. Cleanliness and Stainless Steel are
closely related.
After assembly, we recommend that owners apply a thin layer of Olive Oil with a clean rag, to all
exposed Stainless Steel areas. This should then be polished in and buffed off with another clean rag to a
non-oily finish. This process will aid protection against dirt and other corrosive contaminants, by providing a
temporary food-safe shield. The Olive Oil layer also makes later polishing and removal of fingerprints
easier. This process should be repeated frequently when cleaning your grill.
You may have bought a protective cover for your BBQ. It is recommended that a BBQ cover should be
used at all times when the BBQ is not in use to protect your investment. However it is vital to understand
that unless the BBQ is cool, clean and dry when the cover is fitted, use of a cover can in fact be
detrimental. A cover placed on a warm, wet or unclean BBQ (or any mix of these factors) can in fact be a
very effective corrosion breeder!
For this reason, the BBQ should always be cool, cleaned of any surface contaminants or dirt and be
thoroughly dry before a protective cover is fitted. This is especially important before a BBQ is stored
for any length of time i.e. if the BBQ doesn't get frequent use, or when the BBQ is stored away over winter
months.
In order to maintain the quality of the finish of your Stainless Steel BBQ, the owner must be vigilant with
care and maintenance according to this advice.
Look after your investment carefully and it will serve you well for many years to come.
