This is not a ranked list. I did not run twelve polishes on a fridge lab. The decision is operational: one labeled stainless-specific cleaner/polish for the houses that actually have stainless — not a new chemical because last week spotted a fingerprint.
A dirty fingerprint on one fridge is not a second brand. An empty labeled bottle already in the caddy is a refill. Next week with no stainless appliances is a skip. All-purpose on appliances is the concentrate-vs-rtu page, not this one.
What to look for
Name the type. Ignore the color of the pack in the listing photo.
1. A stainless-specific cleaner/polish, not all-purpose on appliances
Name stainless cleaner or stainless polish. All-purpose on a fridge is the concentrate-vs-rtu page. This bottle is for the appliance houses. Do not restock a second all-purpose because the fridge smeared.
2. One 16-oz or 32-oz you will finish, not a case
A one-person caddy finishes one 16-oz or 32-oz. A warehouse case lives in the tote. Unit price on the case is not a restock win if most of the product never leaves the bag. Buy the bottle you will finish.
3. A labeled bottle already in the caddy
Empty is a refill/restock. A dirty fingerprint on one fridge is not a reason to buy a second brand. Carry the bottle you already labeled. If it still has product, that is inventory, not a buy.
4. Skip the aisle if next week’s book has no stainless appliances
Count the book, not last week’s smear. If next week’s houses have no stainless, this is not a buy. Stainless cleaner is for the appliance houses. A no-stainless week is a skip.
5. Keep it on the supply tab as a par, appliance houses only
Put “stainless cleaner, par 1 bottle, appliance houses only” on the supply tab. This is not a weekly burn unless the book is stainless every stop, and even then it is still par 1 bottle. Do not raise par to a case because one Saturday a fridge smeared.

What to skip
- A new microfiber because stainless spotted. Wash the cloth. A smear is a wash, not a reason to buy a second stack of cloths.
- Buying four boutique polishes. One labeled bottle. The other three are trunk clutter.
- Changing glass cleaner because the fridge smeared. A fridge smear is stainless or a cloth. It is not a reason to change the glass mix.
- A warehouse case for one person. You need one 16-oz or 32-oz you will finish. The case is not a restock win.
Sunday-cap note
If the bottle still has product and next week is no-stainless, skip. Spend the cap on gloves or bags. Do not count a warehouse case as inventory, and do not count a dirty fingerprint as a reason to buy a second brand.
The Recurring Clean Book supply tab can hold “stainless cleaner, par 1 bottle, appliance houses only.” Raise it only if the book is stainless every stop, then it is still par 1 bottle. Do not change the number forever because of one Saturday.
