Barkeeper's friend will remove it. Just sprinkle some on and don't rub. Just lightly dampen it and let it set. If you rub it may scratch.
I used it all the time on my SS sink. I rubbed but mine had a pattern I followed, a swirl.
I get mine in the grocery store.

I agree, BKF will remove ANY stains from stainless steel.
