It does not remove scratches. BKF has a mild type of acid that removes food film that is adhearing to the pots and pans. We just seared some pork chops in the 12 inch skilet and then deglased with some hot water while the pan was still on the burner. After the fond was released, I let it cool then washed with soapy water. After rinsing I saw the film inside, put in some BKF and rubbed with a paper towel and voila the film is gone. Another quick soap wash and all was right with the world.

It may remove minor scratches. For deeper scratches, I would use a fine grain sand paper. Nevertheless,you will definitely want Bar Keepers Friend for regular cleaning/stain removal. I'm shocked at how much I love this stuff. SO worth it!!!!!

I can't tell you for sure, since I have never scratched my cooktop. I suspect Cerama Bryte would not remove scratches, but that might depend on the depth of the scratch. It seems to have a very mild abrasive in the cleanser. The best analogy I could use would be auto rubbing compound. That kind of compound will remove shallow blemishes, but not deep scratches. I suspect Cerama Bryte would work the same way. Again, though, my cooktop has never been scratched, so I can't respond with any certainty.

I'm using it in my Fagor stainless steel pan because the original cups are no longer non stick. I haven't seen any scratches or had any other problems.

Hi, My in-laws have this product and we use it quite frequently. I don't know how long they have it but it is definitely a few years. I am currently wanting to get one because it gets a little embarrassing to constantly stop by to borrow the hot pot. It appears the one from my-laws does not have the problem with the scratches like the one that you are describing. We uses the wooden spoons or bamboo made drainers most of them. I don't remember if we uses anything metal during the course of our usage. Perhaps the quality either has gone down or perhaps it was something that you did. Btw... you are just getting the "mass" to respond to you. You should call Amazon.com or go to your order page to initiate a return request. If it has been a while since your purchase, perhaps you need to contact the manufacturer for answer. Let me know if you got this work out. If it is indeed a quality issue, then, I will continue to do the borrowing vs. buying.

Try these wipes, if they don't work buy some sterling silver jewelery cleaner. I have used it on my stainless steel. And it worked on mine.

The only way to "remove" scratches from ANY surface is to grind down that surface below the grade of the scratches, then re-polish. Cerama Bryte can't do that. Accept the scratches as normal wear and tear, and enjoy your stove for what it is, a tool, not a showpiece.

good question. that's what I have, and the kettle works. but the top was already scratched. are you asking about whether the kettle will function or about scratches? I'd love to know, because I'm looking at a new stovetop.

Hi Connie, sorry if I'm a little late in answering. I'd have to say no, it does not remove scratches, and I don't care for it much as a cleaner, either. I use it for my fridge and stove - though in the end my appliances look better, it's very runny and hard to control, also it leaves a film that collects dust. The sample packet that came with my stove worked great - I believe it was Weiman Stainless Steel Sink Cleaner & Polish, and it wasn't on Amazon when I bought the Cerama Bryte, but now it is. If you want to get rid of scratches, you might want to use a super fine grit sand paper. It may sound crazy, but the man who smooth scratches out of my car paint finish use 300-400 grit paper and it did not dull the shine. Good luck.

The Frieling brushed finish does not have a shine finish. The finish is similar to brush finish found on appliances such as stoves & refrigerators. Scratches do not show easily and if they do, use very fine sandpaper following the circular brush finish established for the product to remove or conceal the scratches.

The BEST way is to wipe it out w/paper towels upon rinsing. Avoid "scratchy" cleaners always, but you can remove past buildup w/those "safe for Teflon" dishwashing sponges. Hope this helps!

I don't think there is a way to get rid of scratches unless you buff it out with a wax buffer. I got some of the sticky stuff off with nailpolish remover. I think Windex will take care of the rest of the cleaning.

Yes I purchased both. I found this one to be "friendlier" on stainless steel which you did not want to see any scratches on, when using. This one appears to have a much finer powder to it. Use it with the sponges which are non scratch and you'll have new looking pans. I use it about once a week to make sure there is no oil build up on the sides. Works like a charm in eliminating burnt on oil as well.

get some barkeepers friend. It will remove it right away. I use it on my all clad pans, and it doesn't disappoint

I got this for my grandson and they have it on their stainless steel. It is an older frig and not worried about it. Nothing noticeable on the scratching. I have a new frig and probably wouldn't put it on mine just because I would worry about it scratching.

Microfiber towel. (small towels from costco work well) Use your index finger and rub back and forth motion (not circles or swirls) with the same pressure for each back and forth until you think the scratches are removed or smoothed out.

Try "Bar Keepers Friend". You should be able to get it from Walmart (or here in Amazon). There are a few styles of it; Soft cleanser, stainless steel Polish and regular. They should all work for getting the rust out. For cleaning the outside of the pans, stick with the Soft Cleaner variant. For the inside, the regular or SS Polish. Good luck!

I don't believe that the Bar Keepers Friend Liquid Cleaner will remove any scratches. But it does a great job on removing burnt on grease and residue on pots and pans.
