Thomas' Liquid Stainless Steel

Anybody had good success with this product or other one?

Need to do the fridge and dishwasher to match the new SS Stove.

Thanks

A friend used to take old refrigerators, sand off the paint, then finish with a jeweled look and clear coat. It was pretty stunning. I imagine you could use a belt sander for a brushed pattern.

That Thomas stuff looks like dull silver paint. I mean, it "looks" like dull silver paint. I've Googled images and can't find one in which the stuff looks anything like stainless steel. I seriously doubt it will "match" the SS range. Especially after the first scrape.

results will widely vary depending on how well you apply it and consider that many refrigerators have a slight texture to the original finish that will probably hinder the final result.

In the end most appliances will look like they are painted with a brush which doesn't work for cars either unless you have poor eyesight.

you might get good results if you have done a lot of painting projects like this but in the end it will never "look" like stainless steel. It will look like silver paint with a "grain"
