Stainless steel comes with many grade, SS316, SS402, SS706, etc. Using normal "Brasso" to clean the rust. Somehow the SS intact with some acidic fluid. 2. You are right, it the rust is light, use WD40 rub with cloth, if rust is heavy, use "Brasso". 3. "Deposit" of residual water. This is quite "normal", should clean bathroom everyday with soup water (PH<7), make ventilation as much as possible. Glassware is best, but easy to break, stainless steel best to use SS316. In fact, I allow not "wood" stuff within bathrooms, and have changed all screws to SS402. Edited May 23, 2010 by bepgof Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
