Discoloration of aluminum
|
Exposure to certain minerals and alkalis in some foods and water plus
high drying temperature.
|
Boil a solution of 2 to 3 tablespoons (30 to 45 ml) of cream of tartar, lemon
juice or vinegar to 1 quart (.95 L) of water in the utensil for 5-10
minutes. Then lightly scour with a steel wool soap pad.
Clean with a metal cleaning product recommended for aluminum. Follow
package directions.
Cooking an acid food such as tomatoes will also remove the stains and
will not affect the food. |
If water is causing the discoloration, do not use dry cycle or remove
aluminumware after the final rinse.
Check manufacturer's instructions on the dishwashability of the aluminumware.
