How to remove burnt black stainless steel

Hello everyone, today I want to share with you a very practical life tip, that is, how to remove burnt black stainless steel? Do you find this problem difficult? Don’t worry, I’ll give you detailed answers soon.

We must understand that stainless steel burns black because at high temperatures, the oxide film on the surface of the stainless steel is destroyed, causing a chemical reaction between the stainless steel surface and oxygen and water vapor in the air, forming a black oxide layer. How should we remove this black oxide layer? Let me introduce it in detail below.

Method 1: Use a mixture of vinegar and hot water

This is a very environmentally friendly and highly effective method. You need to prepare some white vinegar and hot water. Mix white vinegar and hot water in a 1:1 ratio, then put the blackened stainless steel into this mixture and let it soak for about 30 minutes. Then, gently wipe the stainless steel surface with a soft cloth or sponge. You will find that the black oxide layer has been almost removed. Rinse it with clean water and you can see the original bright stainless steel.

Method 2: Use toothpaste

Toothpaste is a commonly used cleaning product in our daily life. It can actually remove blackened stainless steel. You only need to squeeze out a piece of toothpaste, then dip it in the toothpaste with a soft cloth or sponge, gently wipe the stainless steel surface, and then rinse it with clean water to remove the black oxide layer.

Method 3: Use dish soap

Dish soap is a powerful stain remover that can also be used to remove burnt stainless steel. You only need to pour out some dish soap, then use a soft cloth or sponge to dip in the dish soap, gently wipe the stainless steel surface, and then rinse it with clean water to remove the black oxide layer.

Method 4: Use special stainless steel cleaner

There are also some cleaners on the market specifically designed to remove burnt stainless steel, and the results of these cleaners are usually better. You only need to follow the instructions for using the cleaner, apply it evenly on the stainless steel surface, wait for a while, then gently wipe the stainless steel surface with a soft cloth or sponge, and then rinse it with clean water to remove the black oxide layer.

The above are the four methods I recommend for everyone to remove blackened stainless steel. Each method has its own unique advantages. You can choose the method that suits you best according to your actual situation.

Here I would like to remind everyone that although these methods can effectively remove the blackening of stainless steel, in order to prevent the stainless steel from being blackened again, when we use stainless steel products, we must pay attention to avoid exposing the stainless steel to high temperatures for a long time. For example, when we are cooking, we can use anti-scald gloves or anti-scald pot mats to protect stainless steel pots; when we clean stainless steel, we should also be careful not to let the water temperature be too high.

Generally speaking, burnt black stainless steel is not a big problem. As long as we master the correct method, it can be easily removed. I hope my sharing can help everyone. If you have other questions, please feel free to ask me--nina@proshui.com
