JKD Posted September 12, 2021 Report Share Posted September 12, 2021 Hi guys n gals,,,, just installed a new stainless steel cooker and on peeling the protective plastic film from certain areas, some of the 'adhesive' has remained in ghastly streaks and patches. I've tried cleaning it off with a stainless steel cleaner and warm soapy water with no success, so can anyone recommend a method/product to do this ? TIA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TIGHTCHOKE Posted September 12, 2021 Report Share Posted September 12, 2021 Is there nothing in the manual? Might be worth contacting the manufacturer or the place you purchased it from. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stonepark Posted September 12, 2021 Report Share Posted September 12, 2021 Mayonnaise, put onto residue and leave for an hour or two and then wipe off if residue is water based and most are. If this doesn't work, normally then go to panel wipe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JKD Posted September 12, 2021 Author Report Share Posted September 12, 2021 Thanks for the info and help fellas, much appreciated. Tried the cooking oil method,,,, takes away some stickiness but steel remains blemished/tarnished. I'll try other ideas ASAP. Luckily I can test on the sides which are only slightly affected. It's the front oven tray door at the bottom which is most affected,,,, in fact it's dreadful 🙄 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moondoggy Posted September 14, 2021 Report Share Posted September 14, 2021 Lighter fluid, brilliant stuff to have around the house. Just used it today on exactly the same thing, removing clear stickers from some new stainless steel light fittings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tried the mayonnaise on one area and it actually worked, to an extent,,,, tasted nice too. 😊 18 hours ago, ditchman said: careful how you use WD40....over time espesially on a warm surface it will leave a yellow residue which is a devil to remove Tried WD40 on the bit the mayonnaise didn't work on, and it cleared it but,,,, didn't taste nice 😳😅 Also tried the WD40 on the badly affected oven tray door front. This also worked to a point, but there are some stubborn cross grain [brushed stainless steel] marks that won't shift. Would warm soapy water clean off the WD40 to stop any potential yellow residue ? All those products/things mixed together would sure make a lethal concoction 😆 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GingerCat Posted September 15, 2021 Report Share Posted September 15, 2021 Some hand gel that's 70% alcohol would clean up what's left maybe. Works on my glasses. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
