Try calling the manufacturer of the refrigerator. This can't be the first time that this has happened. You might be able to use the compound used on cars, but I would call the manufacturer first. It might not be that noticeable, but unfortunately, it will be the first thing that you see when you look at the fridge. Good luck and let us know. Also, keep your girlfriend away from scotch brite pads.
Probably, you can get rid of the scratches with (automotive) rubbing compound, followed by wax. Just don't get carried away, be careful around any sharp creases in the metal (corners, edges).
If it doesn't have a pebble finish and is glaossy black try very fine buffing compund used to remove car finish scratches. Any professional auto finish store will have them.You might one to get different grades as it will make thogns go faster. Take a photo of the scratches to the suto finish store and they can advise you waht to get.
Yeah, it does have that textured finish to it...and it is gloss black.
I put a coat of wax on it tonight and it actually made the black color deeper and that seemed to conceal the scratches. I will have to see it in the daylight to see if it made a difference.
My mother used to use appliance wax.....I can't recall the brand name but it came in a metal container similar to "Brasso" and was a white liquid. I've looked for it everywhere and can't find it, but I'm fairly certain it can be found online. Good luck and I hope the car wax will be satisfactory.
The kitchen wax I think y'all were referring to was Jubilee Kitchen Wax. My mom used it to keep her appliances sparkling like new. When I got married, I began using it as well. Made clean up for stuck on spills and grease splatters a breeze. I can't find it either..if anyone knows where I can buy some, please post it..thanks for the tip on car wax..duh me, never thought of that /
thanks
