Using Gridwall in the kitchen
SWMBO wants to use Gridwall in the kitchen to hang large utensils and
small pots. It's chromed steel, and I'd have to cut it down to fit - I need about 2' square and the smallest panel I can find is 2' x 4'. OK, that's easy, but I'm a little concerned about rust where the cuts would be in a sometimes steamy kitchen. Should I be concerned, is there something unobtrusive to treat the cuts with, or is there a stainless version? Cheers -- Clive |
