Methods for Treating Scratches on Chrome Trim
1 Answers
Methods for treating scratches on chrome trim are as follows: 1. Toothpaste Repair Method: Toothpaste contains antioxidants and decontamination abrasive particles. You can use a damp towel dipped in toothpaste to polish, but it is ineffective against stubborn rust spots. 2. Toilet Cleaner Repair Method: Toilet cleaner also contains dilute hydrochloric acid, which can react chemically with oxides. After dissolving the oxides, wipe them clean with a damp towel. This method is less labor-intensive than using toothpaste and has good practical results, basically restoring the brightness of the chrome strip. It is also a method currently used by many people. 3. WD-40 Rust Inhibitor: WD-40 has strong surface affinity and permeability for metals. It can penetrate into the capillary pores of the metal to 100% remove moisture and dampness, forming an extremely thin and dense protective film to isolate dampness and air, effectively solving the problem of metal rusting "from the inside out." 4. Carburetor Cleaner: Although this is a product specifically designed for cleaning carburetors, it can also remove stubborn stains such as oil and glue. The method of use is to spray the cleaner on the stained chrome trim and then wipe it clean with a damp towel. It should be noted that carburetor cleaner is somewhat corrosive, so try to avoid spraying it on the car paint. If accidentally sprayed, rinse it off with plenty of water and dry it. 5. Copper Polish: Copper polish has a very good effect on removing rust from most metal materials.
