This advice comes from EHw.com http://www.ehow.com/how_172266_clean-stainless-steel.htmlWash stainless steel cookware and utensils soon after using them to minimize staining.
Ordinary cleaning in the sink will suffice for stainless steel cookware.
Use an all-metal cleaner to remove heat stains from the matte finish inside of a saucepan or from the pan's polished exterior.
For heavily soiled/stained areas, scour with soap and a very fine (00) steel wool pad. Restore the finish with an all-metal cleaner.
STEP 6: Polish stainless steel with a paste made of water and baking soda. Rinse and dry thoroughly. Overall Tips & Warnings
If acidic foods sit in stainless steel for a long time, they may cause corrosion. These include citrus fruit or juice, vinegar or pickles.
Bar Keepers Friend, available at most grocery or home improvement stores (www.barkeepersfriend.com) is a recommended cleaner for stainless steel cookware.
If you boil something in a stainless steel pan, make sure the pan doesn't boil dry, or it may discolor.
Do not use bleach or ammonia on stainless steel.
Do not use steel wool to clean stainless steel, as it may leave behind carbon steel fragments that will rust into the stainless steel surface. Use a nylon or stainless steel wool scouring pad instead.
Do not use silver dip cleaners on stainless steel. They will leave a stain.

There is a cleaner called Cameo. It certainly works for my stainless steel. If there is food stuck to your pan use the thin green scrub pads found at most grocery stores.

Make a paste of baking soda and a bit of water. Dip your dish rag in it and rub away. It gets off burnt on mess and even the greasy residue left by cooking sprays. It's safe, non-abrasive, and has no toxic odors. A bit of elbow grease is required but not a lot! Good luck!
