Stainless steel is not maintenance free, but maintenance friendly. When using stainless steel products outdoors, cleaning periodically especially in agressive environments such as coastal areas or swimming pools, is essential. Washing regularily will reduce the risk of tea staining.
What is tea staining?
Tea staining can be defined as: discolouration of the surface of stainless steel that does not affect the structural integrity or the longevity of the material.
Tea staining occurs most commonly within about 5 kilometres from the surf and becomes progressively worse closer to the marine source. However, wind exposure, pollution levels and higher temperatures can create environments where tea staining might occur 20 kilometres or more from the sea water. These same factors also increase corrosion rates of alternative materials.
