Vinegar is a great and cost effective way to keep your appliances looking their best. You can kill up to 99 percent of bacteria and restore the shine of your appliances by using vinegar to clean your stainless steel appliances.
What you'll need:

- A soft cloth (to clean with)
- A dry soft cloth (to dry with)
Instructions:
- Open a bottle of white distilled vinegar. You may also use apple cider vinegar if white distilled is not available.
- Apply a generous amount of vinegar to a soft cloth, make sure not to get the cloth too wet. Wring the cloth out if necessary.
