Radiators are really convectors. Effectively they radiate much less heat than they convect, therefore whether they are painted white, black or made from stainless steel they all convect heat to a similar degree dependant of course to its design, a tube in tube design with a hollow centre that allows the room air to convect up through it would convect much more heat than a solid tube design, likewise you will see the btu's or watts output of such a radiator be listed as much higher than a solid tube design. The main advantages of stainless steel is that it does not rust on the exterior, the inside may corrode a little due to contaminant's in the water but to a much lessor degree than mild steel therefore they last much longer than a mild steel one and they need not be painted. The choice of stainless steel is therefore from a point of view of aesthetics, maintenance and longevity. The choice of finish either polished or brushed is again a matter of taste but one must keep in mind that once the polished type finish is scratched or scuffed it will be significantly harder to eliminate that damage than a brushed one, as the brushed is effectively 'scratched' by emery or stainless brushes to create that effect therefore one could simply use the correct grade emery paper to recreate the finish to match.

Well, the answer lies in the question; by saying 'real' stainless steel, you are implying that there are fake metals which go under the name 'stainless steel', thus the difference is that the stainless steel in refigerators is actually stainless steel, and the fake stainless steel is not...thus your question is answered...
UTS of 304L Stainless Steel is 586MPa UTS of 304 Stainless Steel is 621MPa
No, gypsum does not corrode stainless steel.

The Maytag MDB6759AWS is energy star rated.It's an efficient dishwasher.
There is stainless steel and there is magnaized stainless steel but you can not make regular stainless steel magnetic
It would not be cost efficient -NASA probably uses titanium!
steel is steel and there is nothing you can do about it even if it is stainless steel or it i not stainless steel it will rust
Yep, you can weld steel to stainless and you can weld stainless to steel. You can use steel or stainless welding rod in either case but the steel or steel welding rod will of course rust.
No; steel is an iron-carbon alloy. Stainless steel is an alloy of steel with chromium added. Stainless steel is usually 13-25% chromium (by weight).

No, Stainless steel is not porous. Steel how ever is.

Steel and stainless steel tend to weigh around the same, however, stainless steel can sometimes be a bit lighter.
