Joe – If you heated your pulpit up to the temperatures that parts of the grill get to, it too would likely stain.
Elevated temperatures in SS lead to Chromium Carbide Precipitation – the chrome has an affinity for carbon, which then becomes chromium carbide, and that leaves much less chrome to oxidize and protect the surface. This is why you don’t want to heat SS to bend it or whatever. Sadly, if you use your grill, it will probably begin to rust again at some point. If they used a very rich SS, like Nitronic or something with much more Chrome and Nickel, you wouldn’t have this problem. Of course, you wouldn’t have bought the grill in the first place, because of the price! I have a Magma too, and really like it. It doesn’t get all that much use, weather, or salt either.

I tried a couple stainless cleaners that were based on an acid solution and they did nothing useful. Besides for being pissed at stained stainless – I mean my 1973 stainless pulpits are not stained at all – I was wondering if it was impossible to clean and I needed a time machine to buy a grill made from 1973 era metal. Well Boat Show to the rescue! I got some Prism polish that seems to be a paste with an ammonia smell. It works GREAT! So if you all have stained stainless, give it a try.
