Question
How do you get the urine oxidation stain left behind on stainless steel due to a bloody almost murdered cat(!), off without scratching the stainless steel ? Also do you have any cheap kitty murder methods while you're at it (joking!) ?

Answer
Hi Sara;
Urine staines can be cleaning by using vinegar and water. If it is a strong stain or odor, use straight vinegar and blot and then redo this three times. On stainless, full strength vinegar should remove the stain. You can also use hydrogen peroxide, but that is only if your manufacturer recommends it. some stainless is a by product of other chemicals and peroxide may not work. Stick with the vinegar, it won't cause any problems for you.
