is it because the kitchenware is washed more regularly than a car would be?
also, to add anecdotal evidence, I have some stainless, non-coated hardware on my deck, directly exposed for 18 months now, and there is zero rust.
not trying to be contrary, just saying i have used stainless things but never experienced rust on them. either it's coming, or the stainless i have is somehow all better, or something else is up.
- Tagbert 3y agoI put a plastic item in a stainless steel bowl and added bleach. I left it for several days because I was trying to remove some persistent stains from the item. When I checked it, the bleach had corroded through the stainless steel. I would imagine that road salt stuck into seams would, over time, also corrode stainless steel. If there are small gaps, it can get in there and be hard to clean out. Just like getting food caught between your teeth and not flossing.
