How to keep the stove burner from rusting easily.
The stove burner is made of iron, so it is at risk of rusting if it has been used for years. Here's how to keep the stove burner from rusting easily.
1. Clean regularly.
Clean the stove burner regularly after use. Remove any food or liquid residue that may be stuck to the surface. These residues can cause corrosion if left for a long period of time.
2. Dry well.
Make sure the stove burner is completely dry after cleaning. Moisture can speed up the rusting process. Use a dry cloth or towel to dry it.
3. Use protection.
You can use a special protector or cover to protect the stove burner from moisture. This can help prevent rust and extend its lifespan.
4. Use lubricant.
Apply a small amount of vegetable oil or other lubricant to parts that are prone to rust. This helps form a protective layer and prevents corrosion.
5. Pay attention to the storage environment.
Make sure the storage environment of the stove burner is not too humid. Store it in a dry and clean place, ideally in a room that is not exposed to too much humidity.
6. Proper use.
